 U.S. Mayors Articles | Mayor Rendell Urges Passage of "One Gun a Month" Legislation (9/07/98)
Brady appealed for a "national law [that] would do so much more to curb gun violence" than the individual states' one-gun-a-month laws that are already proving as a deterrent to illegal gun purchases and trafficking.
Brady's impassioned plea for national legislation to prevent "straw man" purchases, James Brady made his own case as a living example of what can happen when handguns fall into the wrong hands.
Brady stated, "There's one small businessman who should be put out of business -- that's the professional gun trafficker." Brady then presented a scenario using a real-life gun runner named "Cartier" to show how illegal purchases in one state can encourage violence in communities in many other states.

 talk.politics.guns Official Pro-Gun FAQ 2/2
Though the Feds had attempted to argue that a "reasonable effort" could mean _no effort at all_under certain circumstances, the impositions of the Brady Act on local law enforcement officers were voided as unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court in their June 20, 1997 ruling in _Printz v.
