Another Reason To Avoid WalMart

"I'm also a little suspicious of the "inconclusive" background check. Not sure what that means."

I think item #9 in the 10-point code deals with that. When a NICS background check is run there are three possible resultsroceed, deny, or delay (the firearm transaction). A delay response gives the NICS agents (nominally FBI) three working days to make a determination whether the transfer should take place. If after three days, the transfer is allowed (inclusive result not withstanding). NICS will sometimes call back when they DO make a conclusive decision, even months after the transfer was made if it is to 'proceed'.
I had one callback on one of those 'inclusive' ones after the transfer was made to say it was a denied result. Rest assured they wanted all the personal data the applicant had written on the 4473 form and I assume he was contacted shortly.

so YEA you pay taxes ..I pay taxes...they don't. and further they keep the x% sales tax as a free profit center...while you pay them it

I understand the tax break scenario. But keeping the x% sales tax? That smells fishy. If it were true, it would be fraud/false advertising/bait-n-switch on an epic scale--the sort no lawyer with half a brain wouldn't go after with a class-action that would dwarf the tobacco debacle.

1st, 250 mayors is BS. How many incorporated cities are there in the USA?

2nd, how many crimes are commited with firearms from Walmart? This is more feel good BS that the anti-gunners do to make it look like they are doing something. It is "death of a thousand cuts". It is more of the "reasonable" sounding stuff that just allows more later.
