So now it falls into place. The Chicago Sun-Times story last night was wrong—the Chinese national from Shanghai must’ve been one of the victims, or at least in that class and left his cellphone behind near where the perp assumed room temperature, because that’s how they “identified” him.
And, if Cho was a resident alien with a green card, it’s perfectly legal for him to buy those two handguns (one month apart, in Virginia). I feel for that gun shop owner in Roanoke. He made a legal handgun sale and now he’s going to be facing lawsuits like he could never imagine.
