Hahn’s office has officially requested that L.A. County District Attorney Nathan Hochman launch an investigation into the Turner’s Outdoorsman store on Hawthorne Boulevard in Torrance – and the seven other Turner’s Outdoorsman locations across the county. The store in Torrance is where Cole Tomas Allen, the alleged White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman, purchased the shotgun used in the April 25 attack in Washington, D.C.
“Turner’s Outdoorsman’s practices demand investigation,” Hahn wrote. “Every day, guns sold at Turner’s locations in L.A. County turn up at crime scenes. These guns are used to kill, to injure, to rob and to intimidate. They have inflicted immeasurable harm on Los Angeles County residents, and we should wield every tool we have to protect people.”
More specifically, she recommended ordinances that mirror those she recently had enacted in unincorporated communities, which include a ban on the sale of .50 caliber guns and ammunition, implementation of a buffer zone between gun dealers and sensitive areas, prohibition of minors from gun stores and instituting a requirement for gun stores to keep fingerprint logs, maintain weekly inventory reports and have security cameras.

More infringing on lawful folks STAT! 😵
But was the sale legal? Kinda makes a difference.
Her father was a repulsive ‘Rat politician named Kenny Hahn. I had to deal with creeps from office which was at odds with the organization I was working for in the late 70s. One day the slimeball showed up in person and expected us to shake hands with him. The guy was the very epitome of a race-hustling poverty pimp and an untiring champion of ever bigger and more intrusive government.
Not surprisingly, in her case the scum didn’t fall far from the bag.
Not to these people. That makes no difference at all.
Seriously. It is insane to talk about .50 caliber weapons when a crime was committed with a shotgun, and few crimes if any are ever committed with an anti-material rifle.
I’ve had numerous dealings with
Turners’ and little If Anything
Will be found to be Out of Order.
Janice Hahn is a b*tch always has been
Shall not be infringed !!!!
A Dim who is - true to type - seeking to blame “lax gun control” for what insane people do with their legally owned guns.
Its not the fault of the man who tried to shoot the President, it’s the fault of the store he legally bought his guns from. /sarc
I don’t know of any FFL store or dealer who’d sell a firearm without first going through the FBI database or the NICS.
They’re also used to shoot birds, deer, varmints, and targets.
See the difference you dumb bitch, Hahn?
It is a little odd that they claim every day, guns sold there are committing crimes. Any video or other evidence? Purchase receipts at the crime scenes? Or was it every day guns. 🤔😵
Why wouldn’t it have been a legal sale?
Bought a lotta firearms from that store. All the paperwork is triple checked and legal. Harassment by Dims for sure.
Exactly. Now if the guy was a felon and not allowed to buy a gun...then yes an investigation would be warranted. This is just a scam to shut down what is probably a very big gun dealer out west and hoping MAGA will go along with it since the gun was used to attempt to murder Trump.
How about getting a REAL judge for the case and not one that grovels all over the gunman
LA County Supervisor Kenneth Hahn? One of the most odious politicians of all time
It is so difficult to sell any firearm related stuff you have to be a lawyer on top of being an FFL! Effen commiefornia sucks!
On google maps it looks like a nice little store. Can’t blame them for selling a gun to a guy with no reason to deny. But democrats always look for ways to disarm citizens.
