TERROR ATTACK IN COLORADO

[326MOD10]

The circumstances of his attempt to obtain a gun have so far not been explained. At least I have not seen anything.

He was unable to purchase a firearm, but did try at one point, because he was not a US Citizen or a green card holder. He only had a work visa so not eligible to purchase.

I knew that much but no details.

Here illegally...then rewarded with a work permit. Only in America.

Actually, it’s worse than that. He requested asylum, and was allowed to stay while that request was pending. So we allow him to stay because he claims he needs asylum, and then he plans and commits a crime like this…contemptible.

If only he played volleyball.

Not to pat myself on the back or anything, but I've been stating the obvious for years. Inability to obtain a gun will not deter insane people with evil intent. I actually heard it on the mainstream media today, this guy wasn't able to get a gun, so he went straight to plan B.

I've been saying the same thing for just as long. The first murder was committed, not with a technologically advanced weapon for the time, the killer simply picked up a rock and bashed his brother's skull in. If they want to kill, they will find a way.
The scary thing is, when they were trying to make it illegal for 18-20 year olds to buy a gun, I used this exact method of murder as an example,"A 12 year old can buy a roadflare, a garden sprayer and 5 gallons of gas without any restriction and imagine that in a crowded train car."
It's a people problem not a gun problem.

Guess I don't understand what other details there would be?

The person filling out the form did their job, or the clearance center did, and that was that.

If you are looking for what type of firearm and things like that I doubt those details will be released or may not even be known depending on how far along the process he was.

Probably won't be released, but technically, the background check would not have been initiated until the form 4473 had been completed, including firearm info and signature.

And said he was a little girl. Joe

Trust your gut...if it says something is wrong then it is. Proceed accordingly.

That means unA** the A.O.
