Straw Purchasers cause crime. Something the Feds know well and the MSM doesn’t.
Have you ever asked "Why doesn't Oakland track down where these guns came from?" Well the answer may surprise you; they have. It takes about an hour through the California Department of Justice. Yes it's that easy. You see most of the handguns used in Oakland were purchased legally. This was brought to their attention a year or two ago and they decided to do nothing about it. They are straw purchases made by girlfriends. The Oakland official who was informed of this declared that they will ignore it because they do not want any "baby momma drama." So they know that no action will be taken and more and more baby mommas buy guns for the baby daddy. The Federal prosecutor and BATFE are cooperating with Oakland on not cracking down on it.
