Not a citizen. Seems like he should not be buying guns to begin with. Jail and deport him.Really? As it states in the article, he followed the law. The law allows him to purchase firearms, as it should. The supreme court has ruled multiple times that legal aliens have the same constitutional rights as a citizen does. If the 1st, 4th and 5th Amendments apply to legal aliens, so does the 2nd.

None of the people here would have been in his cross hairs.
I would have been and I am getting rather tired of it really. I’ve been through 3 of these shootings.

Don’t do the search and then buy the acid and talk to people about doing it.
This kid was on the radar. He flipped all the switches and they weren’t going to ignore it like the law did in every other shooting.

Just as an abstraction, consider... “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
What could go wrong?
As a matter of abstract jurisprudence, we as a nation have adopted a presumption of innocence.

Why send him to Red China? He’s from Taiwan.

“That you can own 30-round magazines, but not use them in AR-15s.”
No kidding? I thought VA was one of the more gun friendly states? Even here in illannnoy we don’t have that problem although democrats are endlessly pushing for it.

“watched” is not the same as “arrested and thrown in jail for a month and counting with no supporting evidence”.

but this is Virginia Tech, and like it or not, everyone having anything to do with weapons Of course they are going to be touchy. They created a catastrophe, and refuse to acknowledge the cause.

I don’t disagree. Just saying.
Not sure if you think I am defending their behavior.

While waiting for paperwork on my Henry 22 rifle, the guy behind me bought a 308 rifle and gigantic scope. It developed he was a foreigner, and the purchase was legal. His homeland?

... I would submit that Congress has the authority to regulate non-citizens,...
You are correct.
Article 1 Section 8 gives Congress the power “To establish a uniform rule of naturalization.”
The President enforces the immigration laws, not to create fake laws such as DACA.
