Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

John Diaz, Seattles Police Chief, wasn’t pleased with the turn of events stating “I’d prefer they wouldn’t sell them,” but admitted it’s perfectly legal for private individuals to buy and sell guns, FOR NOW. Mayor Mike McGinn said at a news conference the private transactions are a loophole that needs to be closed. “There’s no background checks, and some (guns) could be exchanged on the streets that shouldn’t be in circulation.”
Our fine mayor seems to forget that it is already illegal to knowingly sell to a prohibited person. Up to a $10,000 fine and 10 years in jail. Closing this non-existent loophole will do nothing to stop criminals from stealing and selling guns or participating in straw purchases. It does punish gun owners though, so maybe I'm missing the point.
