    Oh Side note I see that the " investigators bought a hand gun .
    Now let me see .. they were from New York , residents I assume .
    They go to Arizona then to the gun show .
    At that point they , or one of them , buys a hand gun .
    Ahhh ? Did they just not violate federal law by buying a gun out of state
    and taking possession of same in the state of purchase ?
    We know that they did .
    So since they admitted they broke the law to do the research .
    Irrespective if they are government employees or cops ..
    Where is the BATF in the arrests ?
    What's that ?
    No where to be found ... oh ok .
    So it's ok to break the law for a good cause .

    But its not illegal when Bloomberg does it


    Didn't he pull a stunt like this a year or two ago and get in trouble for it? Maybe Arizona should secretly send some investigators to New York City and see how he feels about that. Also while reading the supposed exchange between the buyer and seller the seller stated all the buyer needed was a Arizona drivers license. Doesn't that mean they illegally manufactured drivers licenses also.

    If the purchases that Bloomberg's people are making are illegal, then why isn't ATF arresting these law breakers?

    If Bloomberg's people can buy handguns across state lines and take the handgun with them, and ATF does nothing, then why can't I do the same????

    Bloomberg spent over 100 dollars a vote in the last election, he owns NYC. Like chicago, when you own a city you can pretty much do what you want.

    Maybe Bloomberg should concentrate his efforts on the state where he bought...... I mean was elected. Does anybody know the statistics per capita between NYC and whatever city in AZ for violent crime?:dunno: It's nice to know that he spends taxpayer money to send people to Arizona on vacation and buy "Supposed" illegal firearms. For him to send people to another state to look for crime would be like a guy LEAVING the beach to look for sand.:twocents:

    How about Arizona send people over to look into Government fraud and waste? Talk about a easy one to find in NYC. They could spend years there showing this one.

    The more I think about it, I doubt these purchases were made with NY residents. They probably used locals (they had AZ IDs), and they probably recruited them through their network of supporters. I mean, why fly out 8 NY citizens when they Bradi campaign can produce 8 locals? I think it has been labeled an NY operation because Bloomberg sanctioned it.
