COLUMNIST UNDER FIRE, INVESTIGATION AFTER (C&P)
Copied from THE BULLET SEP/OCT 07 (The official publication of the Virginia Shooting Sports Association)
COLUMNIST UNDER FIRE, INVESTIGATION AFTER RADIO COMMENTS ... A Boston Globe columnist came under fire from gun owners -- and caught the attention of federal agents -- last week after acknowledging on a radio show he may have been involved in a straw purchase. Admittedly anti-gun columnist Steve Bailey set out to prove how easy it would be to buy a gun at a gun show in another state. Bailey, anti-gun advocate John Rosenthal and a New Hampshire resident attended a gun show in New Hampshire where the columnist, because of his out-of-state residency, gave the resident $200 to buy the gun for him and expensed it to the Globe. In his column, Bailey said ATF agents and a police officer paid his friend a visit last week with a search warrant and a tape of the radio interview.

Perhaps he will be able to tell his listener's the rest of the story.... Like what happens when a person illegally uses the "Gun Show Loophole" and gets caught. [:D][:p][}:)] 0 -
"What's that sir? Could you please speak a little louder into my microphone?" 0
