Brianna Nunez: Check Before You Sell

In New York times on April 11, 2013, repoters found a way that people can get guns off the internet illegaly. A woman named Zina Haughton, 42, put a reatraining order on her ex-husband. She had told reporters that his being threaten her every moment. With the restraining order he was unable to purchise any gun, but he found a loophole from a friend who had told him about buying one off the internet. Going by this certain website they were not obliged to do a background check on Haughton's ex-husband. This is how he was able to buy a $500 dollar gun in a parking lot. He then later went to the spa that his ex-wife worked at and shot her until he killed her and two other employes, he then killed himself. I'm not saying to deny everyone from buying a gun, but every business should do a bacground check that tells them who can purches a gun or not.
