Actually gun trafficking crimes being committed in states with less restrictive gun laws, by people from states with lax criminal justice systems. Those guns don't ship themselves.

We have been hearing about straw purchasers for more than a decade, but how many are prosecuted? The answer is almost none.

And none should be prosecuted! This is America and some Americans still think our constitutionally- recognized inalienable (from God) rights are worth defending

IIRC, it is a federal crime to for a person to buy a gun in one state and transport it to another. Legal interstate sales MUST take place by shipment between two licensed gun dealers, one in each state.

If such crimes are not prosecuted, look to the federal prosecutors for failing to do their jobs.
