Gun laws make Va. a mecca for felons with credit cards [More]Well then, the answer is obvious! Ban credit cards! Cash or barter transactions only!
What the hell is wrong with these felons? Maybe we need a law against breaking the law...

Better said, "Who's in your wallet". And since Mecca is the residence of the Asshole of the World, it makes sense that felons go there.
Ban Facebook, too. Social networking allows people with felony records to recruit people with no police record to buy guns for them. (Sarcasm, of course)
I was unaware that the guy walking around the gun show with a gun and a "For Sale" sign was carrying a concealed credit card machine.
The Post objects to our being able to buy guns at all. We know that.
Maybe they are deliberately ignoring the Obama administration's recruitment of Internet providers to "censor" -- meaning "eliminate" -- websites that post copyrighted material without permission -- or anything the government finds objectionable. By the Post's own logic, they could be one critical comment away from being off the 'Net. Gee, just like a Third World country. That seems to be what they want.
The Post coincidentally ran this article on the same day the Nations Gun Show opens in Chantilly, VA.
I suppose I'll need to go by something in protest of the article.

Valid credit cards have nothing to do with these purchases, as they would yield an additional level of traceability of straw purchases. Stolen credit cards with forged identification of someone without a felony record allow purchase with no real cost to the purchaser, but that claim does not appear to be made by this article.
As for "states with porous gun control laws bear a heavy moral responsibility for the carnage" - no, the person pulling the trigger bears that responsibility. Does General Motors or the DMV bear responsibility for alcohol and drug-impaired drivers?
