    Dem ordered illegal gun sales study backfires

    A Democrat-backed study meant to expose illicit online gun sales instead seemed to show the opposite -- with hardly any sellers taking the bait when undercover investigators tried to set up dozens of illegal firearm transactions.

    I think this will help us in the long run because now there is a documented operation whose results prove their theory is wrong. It is on the record and will make it harder for them to use this theory in the future. Hard to argue with the results of your own study!!

      Not really a dupe but the study was discussed here.
      Stop calling them Lawmakers. It only encourages them.

          At least the study results weren't derogatory for gun owners/sellers.


          Except for the rip off artists.

            Just like lawyers should never ask a question to which they don't already know the answer, never order a study unless you know what the outcome will be or at least be able to influence the data.

            They f'd up.
            The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.

              ...especially if you're afraid of what the results might say.

              Sometimes the data leads to unexpected findings.

              What the study does not explain, at least according to the Fox article, is how criminals and certain prohibited persons get their guns. What am I missing?
