News reportage is time sensitive. It looks like a lot of outlets reported that. The source was this:

"A senior law enforcement source told CNN the suspect's father had recently bought him a .45-caliber gun for his 21st birthday in April." -CNN, yesterday

Yes. That is exactly what happened in Nazi Germany.

You break the law, you go to jail.
The supreme court case U.S. vs. Castleman would disagree.

Fox changed their story.....

Meeks said Roof also told him that he had used birthday money from his parents to buy a gun and that he had "a plan."

CNN - Today.....

One key part of this horrific scheme -- the weapon -- came in April, when Roof bought a .45-caliber handgun at a Charleston gun store, the two law enforcement officials told Perez and Bruer from CNN, the first network to report this development. His grandfather says that Roof was given "birthday money" and that the family didn't know what Roof did with it.

The regressive argument that "confiscation is the only reason for a gun registry" is nonsense, nothing else.
