WRONG! The police had EVERY reason to prevent him from being ABLE to get a gun, but the Obama PROMISE program and his liberal flunkies in the school district and sheriffs office made sure that he was never in the system.
You want to make more laws to take away good people's rights then do everything you can to protect the bad people.
Please quote the statute you are referring to that would allow the police to either stop him from purchasing or being able to take away his guns.
You mean like paying for a passport, or a drivers license?
No, I mean for items listed as rights in the US Constitution.

What is your question?
You referred to other states doing such restrictions and I responded with the 10th amendment which is, as I understand it, "those items not referred to the US Constitution are the powers of the states.".
The ripeness doctrine comes into effect when things occur outside the realm of the states that they are so major that it is time for the USSC to step in.
No, I mean for items listed as rights in the US Constitution.
You do know that universal rights exist that are not enumerated in the constitution? Things like being able to vote, and the right to travel freely. Those come down from English common law and were considered so ubiquitous as to not be needing to be enumerated. Why are we allowed to charge money for a passport or a drivers license?
Do you have a right to vote? It is not specifically listed in the constitution. As a matter of fact it didn't even appear anywhere in the constitution until amendment 15 in 1870 something. Do you think the founding fathers thought you didn't have the right to vote until nearly 100 years after the country came about.
You might want to go back and reread number 9.
"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people"
Gotta keep the cult fed with fresh meat. How long before Dana Loesch, NRA's paid crisis actress, does another video, this time condemning kids/young adults for exercising their rights?
The same folks saying that these kids are indoctrinated Democrats pushing a paid for agenda don't realize that they are doing the SAME EXACT THING for a different side. The irony is astounding.
Oh, so gun owners are a "cult" now? That's a pretty large "cult," wouldn't you say? Statements like that make people like you look just plain silly. No wonder no one takes you seriously.
For your information, Dana Loesch has already said they have a right to protest. But the Second Amendment says " ...the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Do you know what that means?
And by the way, Dana Loesch isn't a "crisis actress." She has a legitimate daily radio talk show, unlike Hogg, who is a nobody. You want a "crisis actor?" Look at Hogg.
It's convenient for "nobody's" to attack Dana Loesch, who is somebody, and exercising not only her right to free speech, but exercising her 2nd Amendment right too. Funny how Leftists are quick to condemn anyone who disagrees with them for exercising their rights, while at the same time, waving the Bill of Rights at anyone who criticizes them.
No, I mean for items listed as rights in the US Constitution.
For someone who talks about the constitution quite a bit you seem fairly unfamiliar with it. Do you know the difference between an enumerated right and a non enumerated right?
You do know that universal rights exist that are not enumerated in the constitution? Things like being able to vote, and the right to travel freely. Those come down from English common law and were considered so ubiquitous as to not be needing to be enumerated. Why are we allowed to charge money for a passport or a drivers license?
There you go again with that "You do know" and yet you say you don't put words in mouth.
As far as I know, having a passport or a driver's license is not under the Constitution. They might have been under the Articles of Confederation but that has been long bypassed.
Some of them sure act like one. The description is apt.

Sounds like more of the meme "if you're not a straight white male you're a victim" B.S....
