Campaign targets illegal gun purchases in Jackson area
SUMMARY: A campaign called Don't Lie for the Other Guy is targeting illegal gun purchases in the Jackson metro area. The goal is to educate firearm retailers and customers on how to spot and deter illegal straw purchases, where someone buys a gun for someone who is not legally allowed to own one. ATF, the Department of Justice, and the National Shooting Sport Foundation are involved in the month-long campaign. Jackson was chosen due to its high level of gun crime and the fact that guns bought in Mississippi are often trafficked to other states like Chicago and New York. Straw purchasers could face up to 15 years in prison and $250,000 in fines.
