This is another great example of why we have no need for further legislation on background checks:
U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul, Jr. announced today that Paul Davis, 48, of Rochester pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Frank P. Geraci, Jr. to conspiracy to unlawfully engage in the business of firearms dealing without a license, including interstate transportation of firearms, sale of firearm to a convicted felon, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The charges carries a maximum penalty of 25 years in prison, a fine of $750,000 or both. As part of the plea agreement, the defendant agreed to forfeit 10 firearms along with various rounds of ammunition seized at his business and residence in Rochester, N.Y….Liddon Young was arrested and charged by criminal complaint with multiple gun charges in February 2013.
All of those charges, and yet still a crime happened. Does anybody believe one more law would have changed this situation?
Also note that Attorney General Eric Holder still hasn’t been charged with his involvement is the ATF gun trafficking operation to Mexico “Operation Fast and Furious”.
We need to enforce existing laws.
