According to the VCDL , one of the shops sued by Hizzoner Bloomburg has shut its doors and its inventory being sold online.

A spokesperson for Hizzoner gave the usual bull story that it wasn't their intention to shut down stores:
"It is not our intent at all to push people out of business," he said. "The goal of the settlements is compliance with the law."
Which is why they couldn't do anything in criminal court and had to go to civil court to do anything. Which is why they fought so hard to keep their discoveries private from the BATFE. Disingenuous to the end.
Was the shop boycotted by the VCDL? Yes, because they refused assistance and then settled. I feel as much sympathy for Cole's as I did for S&W when they cut a deal w/ the Clinton Administration
