The law now applies to nearly all firearm sales and requires licensed dealers, like Walmart, to facilitate private-party transfers. Walmart is concerned because the new law requires it to conduct background checks for guns it doesn't sell. [More]What's the word for coercing human beings to perform uncompensated labor...?

"Including New Mexico, 12 states and the District of Columbia require background checks on all firearms purchases at the point of sale, according to the Giffords Law Center. However, this is the first time Walmart has reevaluated firearms sales “in this manner” after a change in state law, according to Wilson."
Ah, great — another “rights-whittling tactic” now available at the state level to the totalitarians.
