Heard on the Joe Pags show that he (Dylann Roof) had pending felony drug charges from Feb., 2015, and his father gave him the gun in April, 2015 (”B-day gift”). Pending felony charges get you turned down on a NICS background check and I think that makes the “gifting” of the weapon illegal as well? Any experts out there? So in other words existing laws would have prevented this way of getting the weapon barring the “straw purchase”by the dad.

"But that is a pro-gun law. What anti-gun law would have prevented it?"

My personal opinion in watching BO yesterday... The President feels he missed his chance after Sandy Hook but now he's got a second opportunity. An even better opportunity. The perfect storm. Not only a mass shooting but a racist mass shooting. When the mourning subsides, he will have an executive order or two ready to go and there will be a full-scale attack on the 2nd Amendment.

obama will not leave office without some attack on the 2nd Amendment. He will throw things in chaos again as far as ammo goes. Stock up now!

Bank on it.
