Connecticut store that sold gun to Newtown shooter's mom loses license From ASSOCIATED PRESS Last Updated: 3:05 PM, April 5, 2013 Posted: 9:15 AM, April 5, 2013 NEW HAVEN, Conn. — A shop that sold a gun to the Newtown school shooter's mother has lost its federal firearms license.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives revoked the license of Riverview Gun Sales in East Windsor in December. The agency, which confirmed the revocation to reporters Thursday, didn't say why.

Authorities raided the store for undisclosed reasons shortly after the December school shootings in which Adam Lanza killed 20 first-graders and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School. He also shot to death his mother, Nancy, at their home. Authorities say he fired 154 shots with a Bushmaster .223-caliber rifle inside the school, then killed himself with a Glock handgun.

OK so he had theft problems. But the real issue was the timing of the closure. If the theft problems were so serious, why didn't they act sooner?

It's still persecution by virtue of the timing.

Having driven through several of the richest towns on earth the other day (Greenwich,New Canaan and Darien,CT) all I can say is that I sincerely hope that I someday see every one of those $10,000,000 homes owned by caring “progressives” crumble to dust and every one of their Ferraris turn to piles of rust.

Also, keep in mind this is the agency that is now soliciting for a HUGE computer database of information on all the people in the country. Scary times we live in.
