A journalist tries to buy a gun. Gets denied. Hilarity ensues.
Short version: He’s doing a story of how easy it is to buy guns (complete with overwrought hyperbole), but he’s got a history of alcohol abuse and a domestic violence charge. Then he’s got the cluelessness to say “didn’t see that coming.”
D’oh! (h/t to Vox)
assholes. apparently he did report it. that’s a bit of a switch.
