| Might be worthwhile to bust on the NYC bureaucracy to see if this bunch had all the requisite permits and licenses to run their scam. Then bust on the NYC ATF SAIC to see which - if any - FFL holder had those arms in his "Bound Book". |

Let's say States United really filmed whoever came in, editing out anyone who disagreed. Go watch the video again. Pay attention to the customers.
The recent gun-control study tells us that guns in the U.S. are owned by a small and shrinking minority of old white guys. How many of this video's customers fit that demographic?
I saw women, men, blacks, whites, and Hispanics, who are overwhelmingly young professionals. Styles from coat-and-tie to open-shirt-and-vest to full-yuppie-beard-and-pullover. Not a bitter-clinger in the bunch.
If these are the people who come into a first-time gun store, considering a gun for defense, off the streets of NEW YORK CITY, then gun control is over, and the gun-ban groups are just whistling in the graveyard. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
