Markell said Cho was "a clean-cut college kid," and the transaction was entirely legal under Virginia law. "He was as cordial as could be, and there was nothing unusual in his manner that suggested any thing wrong," Markell said. Markell said he was not present when Cho bought the gun, but that he had produced a state driver's license and an immigration card. He was or wasn't present?

Clueless Drive by/MSM idiots. They know nothing about guns and nothing about human nature. Yet they present themselvces as an authority on both!

OK, so the gun was purchased legally over a month ago.
First question - what gun control law would have kept this guy from getting it without keeping someone with no criminal intent from getting it?
Second question - why did the perp file off the serials? You know the gun shop didn’t sell it that way!

Will we hear of how, from whom, and for how much someone bought a vehicle later used in a multiple-fatality car wreck? (And if not, why not?)

why did the perp file off the serials? Because he was a kook.

Seriously, why should an immigrant be prevented from purchasing and owning (and carrying) the means to protect themselves?

I want to know where Mohammed Atta bought his Koran. I want to know where Andrea Yates bought the bathtub she drowned her kids in. Where did Cary Stayner buy the knife he murdered four women with?

Did anyone see a Glock 9mm running around the Campus shooting people at random? Kind of like the SUV that goes berserk and kills the driver inside!

This guy posts to a blog which was linked last night on Free Republic. I was a little skepitical then but he said CHO bought a Glock 9mm and a Walther p22, that the receipt for the glock was found on him, and that he had a video camera system and had burned a copy of the pic of Cho buying the weapon and given it to ATF agents.

No laws were broken. The future killer even complied with Virginia's stupid one gun a month buy law! I would like liberals to explain to me how their gun control laws would have stopped him. They didn't!

No, Resident Aliens can buy guns. There is an option for checking that on the federal form. You then have to provide your card information.
To: Neu Pragmatist
All this info was posted on Free Rep last night via a link to ‘Black Rifles blog’ I think it was called that. If a reported had been monitoring FR last night about 8 pm, he could have scooped everone with the name of the shooter which the store owner said was CHO

Well, I first heard the information about the Roanoke store and the name Cho here on Free Republic yesterday (via black-rifles.com), though it hadn’t been confirmed.

I want to congratulate all the Freepers out there. This entire story was out here on Free Republic last night on one of the story threads. Even the name of the shooter was on Free Republic last night, before he was officially identified. Now ABC is confirming this story about him buying the weapons and ammunition.
Free Republic can be a site with breaking news. Perhaps the MSM wanted to hold back this aspect of the story for some reason. And the delay in official identification suggests something too about the MSM and the officials in charge.
