It's a shame your chute failed to open.

I play golf and ride motorcycles for enjoyment. I have one set of golf clubs & one motorcycle. If I had several sets of golf clubs & motorcycles & spent the major part of my day talking and fondling
them, that's obsession.
Can you as a gun owner carrying outside your home guarantee that you won't mistakenly shoot
a person whom you suspect of participating in a criminal act?
How do you deal with meteorites
falling on you while outside your home? See, life has risks & we live in a society. If you can't
handle life's risks in a rational manner, perhaps you should consider staying in your home.
Can you as a motorcycle rider guarantee that you won't drive your bike recklessly and harm someone on a public street because of your actions?

What kinda bike are we tawkin'? Ninja 250 Do you ride it wearing a chrome thong? ATGATT
I ride and own 3 lids and a skull, plus I carry one of my (3) .45s, but I may not ALWAYS wear a lid.

So the question is, if that you wear a led on every ride are you possessed, err obsessed?

As to the topic, there is no topic and 0 facts. It didn't happen just because some PC mouthed off and created a pretend story.

BTW Tinkerbell carries a GUN!

A Chief of Police and his bodyguard in a city in Mexico were killed by an assault rifle sold to the drug cartel by the Obama administration. What's the difference?

The OP is sure going to be surprised to discover no back ground check, check for mental illness and probably never will.

There is this little problem called Doctor Patient Confidentiality. The only way around that seems to be with military personnel, who are deemed fit to carry a gun to fight in a war, but are deemed publicly, mentally ill after the Govt got what it wanted .

It would be great to see the PC test this Law Doctor Patient Confidentiality.

Then don't use the term since you are so clearly and willfully ignorant of it's meaning and have no honest intentions of learning what it means.

And uh, yes, YOU did say he had "assault weapons".... you said "so we have criminals selling assault weapons now?" That is your statement, not a quote from the article. You are essentially making the claim.

I described the few guns I own with a LE Official and asked if they were assault
weapons. He assured they're not classified as assault weapons under
California's definition of assault weapons...I'll take that as meaning they're
not assault weapons
Yeah well half of the people who are supposed to know what an "assault weapon" is, in fact don't. See Diana Diggett, See McCarthy. So you would do well to learn the definition yourself.

If I run a search I bet I can find a story about an officer who was killed by a drunk driver. Having said that, would you also advocate restrictions on cars for law abiding citizens who have done nothing wrong?
This one was back in May

Harris County sheriff's deputy killed by drunken driver - Houston Chronicle

The kicker is that the drunk is an illegal, who'd been charged with DUI before.

Sounds like this would-be criminal maybe needs a profession other than 'licensed gun dealer'. That would be good for starters.
