In Canada, you need a license to own and buy guns. You can't sell a gun on craigslist to an unlicensed owner. Also in Canada, that idiot's mom would have to have gone through gun safety courses and should have been trained to lock up her guns and ammo.
I don't see what's the issue. You have to be licensed to get a car, why not a gun?

No you cant BS the survey. They do a background check with your liscence, SSN, etc. Its already pretty thorough, and you dont get the gun right away. Your survey is reviewed by the state, and you have the cool down period. And with craigslist, people sell guns with code names, ILLEGAL GUNS. Same way prostitutes and drug dealers use craigslist. In California, you pretty much have to be liscensed to get a gun.
