--this buffoon apparently doesn't know that a "straw purchase" is a federal crime for both buyer and seller--
--and I wonder what the car manufacturers are supposed to do about "carjacking?--

Felons who cannot pass background checks use others with clean records to make these straw purchases. People who break laws are breaking our laws. But, if we passed more laws, they'd have to follow those laws. And then we'd have fewer people breaking our laws.

This is a link to a youtube interview of an author who’s thesis is the liberal left is a utopian religion intent on destroying the existing order so we can move towards utopia. It’s slow moving with no drama, shootings, or special effects. But the guys have some really good points to make.

Governor Ryan declared a state moratorium way back before he went to prison.

Maybe Turban’s state run by stupid libtard such as himself should update their laws? 🤪 If a felon ends up with a gun and uses it for murder that person who supplied the gun is looking at about 20 years in prison in my state. It just happened last year in my city and conviction has already occurred.

Hello, this is Foxy Francis, your friend from Ford. The motor of this car will stop in 20 seconds as your cellphone’s bluetooth signal has been lost for over 30 seconds.

We can pass a bazillion laws but with the George Soros DAs who will not enforce the laws or the punishments that go with them it really won’t matter.

They realize more gun laws in Chicago won't help, so let's make more Federal laws.

Does Illinois has the death penalty ? Yes, but no one actually gets put to death here anymore.
At least not in prison.

Hello, this is Foxy Francis, your friend from Ford. I haven’t been able to recognize the driver of this car in the programmed amount of time and the GPS system says this car is not at a Ford authorized repair facility - I will slow the speed of this vehicle by 1mph per second until I hear the magic words.
To: rellimpank
In fact if you drive a getaway car for a burglary or robbery where someone dies (even the robber) then the getaway driver is charged with murder in my state. Even if the homeowner legally shoots the robber - the getaway driver is charged for the death.

The legal profession tends to the arrogance that law is the answer to bad hearts. This arrogance is probably ancient, but did have a respite for a bit, where it viewed “the law” as something to be divined from God, rather than a brilliant creation of man.
