Last October, my sister Zina was murdered with an illegal gun that her estranged husband bought on Armslist.com. Unfortunately, nearly one year later, it’s still too easy for criminals and other dangerous people to obtain guns over the Internet.

After Zina was physically abused by her husband Radcliffe, a judge issued a restraining order that prohibited him from owning or buying guns. He couldn’t buy a gun at a licensed gun dealer, because he would have failed a background check. So he went online, where he posted a “want-to-buy” ad on Armslist. Within hours, he found a seller and bought a .40 caliber Glock handgun, which he picked up in a McDonald’s parking lot for $500 cash.

No background check. No questions asked.
