You know, I got to thinking, why isn't anyone raising hell with the BATFE over the handling of the audits conducted at Bull's Eye gun shop in Washington (the gun shop that let Malvo walk out with the Bushmaster)? Think about it, the BATFE conducts an audit at the store and finds several missing guns. What do they do about it? Well it doesn't appear that they shut down the gun shop as there ended up being 238 guns missing!!! I don't know about you all, but if I had 238 missing guns, I might notice I had lost a whole lot of product without payment.
So I gotta ask, what are we doing about the BATFE's complete failure to shut this place down? Why should anyone ask Bushmaster why they continued to sell guns to a lawfully licenced dealer when the real question is why the BATFE didn't shut Bull's Eye down? I am going to draft a letter to my Congressman and Senators and ask this question. I am also going to ask them why they failed to pass legislation that would have prevented Bushmaster from even being in this position when it is clear that the negligence was at the hands of the owners of Bull's Eye and the BATFE for failing to shut them down when they couldn't pass their audits.
I recommend we all start raising hell about this. Write letters to your congresscritters, senators, and the President. Lets hold the BATFE accountable. If we want to reduce gun crimes, we need to crack down on these dealers who are unlawfully selling or "losing" guns and have strict enhancements for committing a crime with a firearm. The last thing we need to do is allow Bushmaster to have to spend another dime of their insurance company's money on a crime that could have prevented by the BATFE doing their job.
If anyone has any good links about exactly what happened with the BATFE at Bull's Eye, post them.
