The Penalty for Lying and Buying





"Don't buy it for the other guy and don't lie for the other guy, unless you're prepared to spend the next several years in a federal prison," said Chuck Rosenberg, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia at last Tuesday's press conference kicking off the joint NSSF-ATF program that helps deter illegal straw purchases. Rosenberg used the media opportunity to announce an indictment of 11 alleged suspects in a gunrunning scheme involving illegally purchased firearms in Virginia that were peddled on the streets of New York. ATF and NYPD cooperated on the undercover operation, in marked contrast to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and his recent amateur "sting" operations using private eyes to target out-of-state gun dealers, an obvious publicity stunt when you consider Bloomberg did not even consult with NYPD. In the Virginian-Pilot's story, an anti-gun group's spokesperson ignored ATF and the U.S. Attorney's support of the program, taking a verbal swipe at Don't Lie that NSSF promptly responded to with a letter to the editor.
