Open Lines of Communication Focus of Gun Summit

God forbid the right of the people to keep and bear arms should be the focus...but then, we're dealing with people who view themselves as overlords, not public servants.

Here's a nice bit of unsubstantiated propaganda presented by CBS 11 as fact:
It's estimated 20 percent of gun industry profits come from the sales of illegal guns.
Really?

Who did the estimating? What methodology did they use? Have the findings been published? Who reviewed them to make sure that statement isn't pure agenda-driven hysteria? If provable, how many "gun industry" executives have been charged, prosecuted and convicted for selling "illegal guns," which is...umm...illegal?

And, if true, what does that say about GCA 68 and the Brady background check?

Don't look for these questions to be raised--the "open lines of communication" aren't open to dissent.

    Considering that in the true Constitutional sense, there are no 'illegal guns'. Barring the ones that are stolen from their 'legal gun' owners. Any contention they make is garbage.
