Couric 's anti-gun film may have broken federal gun laws
Couric 's anti-gun film may have broken federal gun laws
8 June 2016
The hits just keep on coming for Katie Couric's anti-gun film. The newsreader apologized for selective editing that made made gun rights supporters look foolish over the question of background checks. Now we see this(link is external):
Stephanie Soechtig, the director, producer, and writer for Katie Couric’s scandal-plagued(link is external)anti-gun documentary “Under The Gun,” confirmed in a statement to The Federalist today that her production team
During (link is external)an interview with The Lip TV(link is external), Soechtig stated that one of her producers, a male from Colorado, purchased three handguns and a rifle from a private, non-licensed individual in Arizona and that a background check was never required. Federal law states that all interstate gun purchases must be processed by a federal firearms licensee (FFL)(link is external). Under federal law(link is external), FFLs must confirm that prospective buyers have passed federal background checks prior to transferring ownership of guns to those buyers.
Laws broken (or "skirted," if you prefer), but no harm done, right?
Except the laws governing firearms sales aren't movie props. They carry real consequences if they are violated, and it would appear Couric's producer has done just that.
But don't hold your breath waiting for the ATF to investigate:
“ATF is aware of the allegations, however, the outcome of the private sale in question is unclear and it is not evident if a violation occurred,” ATF spokesman Dillon McConnell said.
Because it would take effort to investigate such a thing. Except, the producer said how the purchases were made, and other law enforcement organizations say the purchases were improper.
Federal laws, it seems, apply only to the little people.
