Exposing Loop Holes at Arizona Gun Shows
Three weeks after the horrific shooting in Tucson,
AZ, that left six people dead and 13 others injured, New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg released undercover footage the City of New York obtained from an Arizona gun show. The video, produced by Devine Mulvey, shows private gun dealers selling semiautomatic pistols to buyers, even after the men said they probably could not pass background checks, and just 15 days after the January 8th shootings. The footage exposes the gaping loopholes in current legislation that allows guns to get into the wrong hands, and too often leads to tragic outcomes and the loss of innocent lives.
The New York Times,
CNN,
BBC News, and Politico are among the news sources reporting on this important issue.
