Nope. They allowed him to enter the U.S. under an assumed name on a foreign passport and found his original. But, hey, if you like: An Iranian Attempting to enter the U.S, With a passport given to him on that day, Under and assumed name(He begins the process of being in this country illegally with that passport) Another passport that is found in the car, in direct contravention to his story "It was washed in the laundry" Three Visas to enter Iran He did not have a day pass Visa to enter the U.S. "You are assuming facts that don't exist" A now "Illegal" Alien storing guns, in a storage locker, in the U.S. tsk, tsk.... Taken in toto, you have the ability to create a narrative(sorry you don't agree but, the government will make up a remarkable story when they want) and you now have a criminal alien(Now illegal) with guns and no longer has a FFL. Whose side are you on? America's or theirs? So now I read your post further and you are plain dumb, period. It looks like you have been doing your research to bolster your lame claims. The second passport was cancelled and is irrelevant? LOL, dude! He used that passport to gain admission to the U.S.! They found the first passport and allowed him to enter, under suspicion and trailed him. AND YES! A SECOND PASSPORT, UNDER A FALSE IDENTITY, IS IN FACT, 100% AGAINST THE LAW. (pssst, don't ask a Mexican though, people are not illegal) Taking the arms is part of the process of an investigation. Chain of custody, etc, blah, blah, as I discussed before.
The Iranian native also lied about why he had a new Canadian passport just issued that morning, the complaint said. He told border guards that his old one had gone through the wash, but agents found it during a secondary inspection with no water damage. The old one, which was not set to expire until 2013, had been canceled, but it was not immediately clear why.
Hmm.... It was cancelled to conceal his new identity?
Bottom Line for me, is it will play out in the courts and he isn't an American. He should know better than to play games. F Him...
