    Mass Shooting In Boulder Yesterday

    Well it turns out that the shooter who killed 10 people is a Moslem. Biden says that he will immediately introduce a bill to ban assault weapons and lots of Democrats support this. The following article describes some of this:

    Isn't it funny that the film guy who walked right behind the shooter wasn't worried he get shot- of course not they are friends and they set this up.

      The LEO who was killed entered the academy at age 40 after a career in IT, with 7 kids. That's the thing, those guys have to go towards the sound of gunfire while others have the option of going the other way. May they all rest in peace.

        Police say they have 'a second person of interest'. May be who you refer to.

          My question is how did a man with a conviction of assault get a weapon from a authorized registered firearm dealer? I have NO idea what the purchase law is where he purchased the weapon but in SOUTH CAROLINA you present identification to the dealer and he in turn forwards this information to S.L.E.D. (South Carolina Law Enforcement Division) they in turn run the information through N.C.I.C. ( F.B.I. National Crime Information Center) Any record or warrants or record is sent back to originating agency.This check takes a few minutes. Don?t tell me it doesn?t work. Midnight shift dispatcher playing around on computer thought he would check out the F.B.I top ten to see if he could look at their record. A little after 2:00 AM I started getting calls from the Bureau inquiring the location of these ten gentleman. It wasn?t a good day for me or dispatcher when I got through with him.
          20 years Law Enforcement and a graduate of the F.B.I. National Academy and I personally have no problem with a background check prior to a legal firearm transaction any where in the USA. In SC in if you have a CWP no background check required..

                The shooter, although having some sort of anger issues, was not under court ordered psychiatric treatment. He was guilty of a minor assault conviction which did not rise to a felony conviction. He was, thus, a legal purchaser of a firearm.

                  Not being a smart alec, but how do we know this. What state did he purchase the weapon and what type of background check and did the seller make any attempt to do so. No argument just asking...

                  After the post I looked up Colorado requirements to purchase a firearm. This is one of the items that would disqualify a person from a legal purchase.

                  “” has been convicted of domestic violence (even if just for a misdemeanor)“”

                  At least two TV networks stated he had previous conviction of assault..( Where they obtained this information I don’t know )
                  FWIW

                    Domestic Violence is different than Assault charges,

                    if, like oscar's mentioned, it was a very minor case, then it may not flag in the NICS, or honestly, may not have been input into the system,


                    remember the Ft Hood guy, the .gov did not bother to put his mental issues in the system , and he legally purchased the FN FiveSeven he used to shoot up the place



                    and honestly, if a TV station says it is raining, it would be a good idea to go look to make sure

                    IIRC, Co has red flag laws,
                    and no one in the family that noticed his behavior bothered to call

                      I stated in my post I didn’t know where they obtained the information . You are correct that assault and domestic criminal violence are two different criminal charges. I’ll leave it at that.
