Turning citizens into law enforcement agents

NYC Sues Virginia Gun Shops Again

“We’re very particular,” he said. “If it’s more than one person that comes in the store, we pay close attention to what they’re doing. If we have the slightest feeling that they’re buying the gun for another person, federal law says we stop the sale.”

Ok, I really don’t see why this is the job of the gun shop owners.  They are conducting legitimate businesses.  If some idiot wants to make a gun purchase for someone that is not allowed to have a gun, then we need to be targeting those people, not the person selling the gun.  It is not their responsibility to determine what the person is going to do with the gun.  Are we going to hold them accountable if someone who “looks seedy” but has no criminal record kills someone?  This is just a stupid law.
