Facebook moves to restrict firearms sales

Heh. While they credit the usual suspects (gun grabbers) they give them no joy, especially:

"For example, private sellers of firearms in the U.S. will not be permitted to specify “no background check required,” nor can they offer to transact across state lines without a licensed firearms dealer."

The former is implicit if you live in the same state as the seller, and it isn't a state that mandates checks for all sales. The latter is a felony, so banning it on Facebook just makes it congruent with the Gun Control Act of '68.

Note also that if you're not a Federal Firearms Licensee, it's illegal to make a business of selling firearms. Doing so on a public media like Facebook would seem to be particularly ill advised, not that the BATFE is very competent....
