No, I haven't. I'm not comfortable around thousands of guns. I was referring to news reports from 20+ years ago, before Virginia passed the one-handgun-a-month law, since repealed.
I've also seen video of Colin Goddard, a survivor of the massacre at Virginia Tech, buying handguns and rifles, in some cases without even showing ID, with cash, without a background check, at gun shows across the country, to show how easy it is. It's his mission in life to close the loophole where people can buy firearms at gun shows without a background check.
If you are going to make broad statements concerning massive quantities of weapons being sold for cash NQA in gun show parking lots, then invite people down to see for themselves, it might be a good idea to be prepared to back the statement. I am also a recreational and self defense weapons owner legal in both states, and I am not prepared to comment on the worthlessness of gun laws in either state. They work for me. I have not seen sales of guns without a background check, and have not seen the video of which you speak. Again, no comment from me on something I have not seen.
That Cho thing: Cho purchased his weapons under the 1 gun a month law, from a bricks and mortar store, 31 days apart, and passed a background check both times, used stock 10 round magazines, and committed the murders in a gun free zone. The flaw is/was the medical privacy laws, which precludes the dissimenation of medical data to databases.
