We're the Only Ones "Straw Purchasing" Enough

A New Orleans Police Department employee and a felon have been indicted for illegally obtaining an AK-47 assault rifle, federal prosecutors said Friday.

U.S. Attorney Jim Letten said Nisheka M. Webb, 21, went to a local gun show July 29 with Wayne C. Jones, 28, to buy a gun for him. Jones, a convicted felon, is prohibited from ever owning or possessing a firearm, Letten said.

The indictment charged both with conspiracy to acquire a firearm by providing a false statement to a federally-licensed firearm dealer.

This story makes no sense on a few levels.

First, why didn't Webb simply give her "friend" one of those guns NOPD "Only Ones" stole from citizens during the Katrina confiscations?

But more importantly, what's this "federally-licensed firearm dealer" business? Everyone knows gun shows provide loopholes for supplying felons and terrorists with firearms--no questions asked.

Right, GOP presidential hopeful John McCain?
