It’s run on CNN and Fox but NBC considers it too controversial.This guy’s either living under a rock or he’s being deliberately disingenuous:

New York’s criminal-justice coordinator, John Feinblatt, called MSNBC’s decision “amazing.'”How could the network call something controversial that all three candidates agree about,” he said. “All three cands have called for the gun-show loophole to be closed.”

And the candidates determine what’s acceptable to the public? This is a controversy because gun shows are where members of the public go to buy and sell the guns that they have the legal right to buy and sell. We have the right to own them and we have the right to sell them. Congress hasn’t done anything about this because they are afraid to do it. Obama and Clinton can pander to their base but you notice they aren’t making this a big issue or sponsoring a bill.BTW, it’s funny that they had to go back all the way to 2000 to get the gun show loophole quote from McCain.
