The issue of gun violence depictions in movies, tv, and news corrupting our culture was broached today too. That's something Biggie mentions a lot as a big problem, in his opinion.
The idea of a gun permit was also proposed at today's session. I remember discussing that with F.U. years ago. I don't remember which congressman put the idea forward today, but I definitely think it's worth exploring further.
The way it would work: someone wants to buy a gun from a street vendor after universal backgrounds checks are passed. The buyer would need to go to a licensed gun dealer and pay them for a permit which would be issued after passing a NICS background check. The buyer would then need to present the permit to the street dealer before the gun could be legally sold and purchased.
The congressman indicated that the permit requirement would give LE a lot more power to bust shady street dealers and street buyers via undercover cops posing as wanna-be buyers.
