Right, but in conducting these stings, Bloomie has shot himself in his little size 8 statist foot. Since his henchmen are known to go around in other states buying weapons while falsely telling the sellers they probably couldn’t pass NICS, he’s diluted the usefulness of the statement. Some sellers might argue the statement is no longer “reason to believe” the buyer is disqualified, since these guys say it when it’s not true, for a person who IS disqualified, it wouldn’t be in their best interests to say so.
Well, if I were Blooms counsel I’d be telling him to zip his lips so tight a crowbar couldn’t open them.
Conspiring to commit a felony in any state is itself an indictable offense.
An irritated prosecutor and a Grand Jury in Arizona could RIGHT NOW pass down an indictment. And that means Bloom and his goons could very quickly end up in cuffs on a plane to Phoenix!
