Later, the gun store sent Steinberg’s newspaper a statement, which read in part: “it was uncovered that Mr. Steinberg has an admitted history of alcohol abuse, and a charge for domestic battery involving his wife.”

Arrogant liberals who think they’re better than rest of us and demand special treatment.

And its not because he’s a journalist.

One who tried this trick is being turned over to authorities to be charged as a straw buyer.

Proof positive that liberals cannot be trusted with guns. Some of them are honest enough to admit it.

Neil Steinberg is clearly a jagoff with no interest in reporting; he merely wants to stir up trouble for others.

If they would have sold it to him, he would have written they sold a gun to an avowed wife abuser.

The FFL has the right to refuse to sell a gun to the town drunk who beats his wife.

Feel free to try to sue them if you’re masochistic.

Even the libtard Illinois democrats will agree with the gun dealer.

He is a member of “The Fourth Estate” which means he never has to say he is sorry, wait in line, or get arrested like the peasants.

He believed that just anyone at all could buy a firearm. So, to prove a point, he tried to buy one, and he was refused. Now he's pissed! But he shouldn't be pissed because the system worked. The delicious irony is that he isn't just "anyone," he's a journalist. And that just chaps his hide!

The gun store turned him down. Like he was some kind of peasant.

Typical lib: a toxic mix of arrogance, malignant narcissism and poor impulse control.

...the reporter handed over $842.50 for a Smith & Wesson M & P 15 Sport II.

Yikes! Full MSRP and then some.
