Why are federal agents doing ANYTHING on this case?

Good question.

I believe the no firearms within 1000 feet of a school is federal law.

That being said; I don’t believe the law passes constitutional muster.

I think that law got thrown out by the Supreme Court. I know they tried to do something like that, but I think it was rejected.

and, even if it were a law, certainly that violation (by a now dead person) would be trumped in spades by the multiple state murder charges.

I suppose this guy MIGHT have broken some gun laws by taking his mother’s guns without her permission, but seriously, the gun laws are not at issue here. Nor is his mother’s behavior, although it seems clear she’ll be damned by the press and the public. Even though she was the first murder victim.

Although who knows, with the low info voters. Based on November’s results I suppose those folks think you could pass a law saying we can each have a banana split every day, and we’ll get one. Or someone will have to answer as to why not!
