"The report identified, among others, Abington Gun Sports in Willow Grove, which allegedly sold to female straw buyers working for a man who authorities say then went on a rampage in Philadelphia in 2003, holding up fast-food restaurants, carjacking a Lexus, and robbing a bank of nearly $60,000."


So the Chief of Police wants FFL dealers to spot straw purchasers...how? By what criteria? By definition, the straw buyer's NICS check came up clean. So on what basis should the dealer refuse to sell?

What "Gun-control advocates joined Philadelphia Police Commissioner Sylvester M. Johnson" to really mean is that dealer should profile buyers, based on, I guess, appearance? Of course, if an FFL refused to sell to someone based on profiling (aka, appearance, race, whatever), I GUARANTEE the dealer would be on 20/20 the next day, being investigated for civil rights violations and racism.
