Uvalde shooter legally bought his guns............

That kid didn't buy them. They were delivered to him.
If he had bought them the left would be going after the gunshop owner who sold them to him.

You know, it would really help your points if you actually read what was going on and knew the facts (if necessary, you can read the links people put in their posts) before spewing bullshit. NO, he didn't have them delivered, he bought them at a gun shop. I posted the link in my OP if you had bothered to read. Here is a bit from the link in my OP, and yes, they were bought at the shop, not delivered.

The gunman in the deadliest school shooting in Texas history bought two AR-style rifles legally just after his 18th birthday — days before his assault on Robb Elementary School in Uvalde.

UPDATED: MAY 25, 2022
He legally purchased two AR platform rifles from a federally licensed gun store on two days: May 17 — just a day after his birthday — and May 20, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said, according to a briefing that state Sen. John Whitmire, chair of the Senate Criminal Justice Committee, received from state authorities late Tuesday. The gunman bought 375 rounds of 5.56-caliber ammunition on May 18.


And, interestingly enough, the gunmaker who made the guns he purchased IS being investigated. Seems that Daniel Defense has a history of marketing guns to young people...............


Additionally, the gun store where he bought the guns has a history of selling ammo to smugglers and the cartels...........


UVALDE, Texas — District 19 Texas State Senator, Roland Gutierrez, told the New York Times, that law enforcement informed him Oasis Outback is where the Uvalde killer bought the guns that would kill 19 4th graders and two teachers.

The store has had a history of selling ammunition to smugglers according to a 2011 press release from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Fred Farhat plead guilty to helping smuggle 10,000 rounds of .223 and 5.56 x 45 mm ammunition into Mexico.


So yeah, he did buy the guns at a gun store, and now both the gun maker and the gun store owners are being investigated. Wanna change your claim that the guns were delivered to him? Because they weren't, they were bought at a gun shop LEGALLY after he'd turned 18, and they were bought on credit. Try again, but this time, try to get the facts correct before you make yourself look like an idiot again.
 
Dunno what to think about this. Apparently the shooter at the Uvalde school bought his guns legally, and waited until just a day or two after his 18th birthday so he could legally buy the weapons and the ammo. Do we need to change the gun laws? I don't really think so, as the laws that are currently on the books are sufficient IF they are enforced.

Do we need to take a closer look at who buys the guns? Maybe, but that would also put a serious burden on people who aren't bat shit crazy who want to buy guns by making them wait and pass checks.

Sorry, but as long as we have guns legally available for purchase, there will continue to be people who slip through the cracks and commit these kinds of atrocious acts.

In Texas,
you must be at least 18 years old to buy a rifle, and the state does not require a license to openly carry one in public.
True.

And bans and restrictions simply don’t work; there’s no need for more government excess and overreach.
 
And he has no DL, which raises the question of how he passed a background check at a retail firearms outlet.
Any legal govt or state issued photo ID will satisfy a NICS check. Military ID, DL, Concealed carry ID... goes on and on. A state issued ID like for people can't get a driverlicense is as good as a DL. They are just looking for a photo, name, addy and dob on it.

A person CANNOT be ineligible to own a firearm if they don't drive, think about it.


What form of identification must a licensee obtain from a transferee of a firearm?

The identification document presented by the transferee must have a photograph of the transferee, as well as the transferee’s name, residence address, and date of birth. The identification document must also be valid (e.g., unexpired) and have been issued by a governmental entity for the purpose of identification of individuals. An example of an acceptable identification document is a current driver’s license.

("governmental entity" it's both state or fed)

Splitting hairs.....He didn't have DL, yet still had access to a pickup truck....A bazillion gun laws wouldn't have stopped this monster.

Gun control does not work.

Solution

Repeal all gun laws and make attempts at getting gun control a capital offense, punishable by prolonged crucifixion.

Problem solved.

The right laws would. It’s obvious other countries in the free world don’t make it this easy to kill children

You can’t buy alcohol until you are 21 .
You can’t buy cigarettes until you are 21.

But you can buy a gun.

:dunno:

Guns are a medical procedure now?


Nope, but the decision for that procedure can't be left to anyone not responsible enough to drink, vote, or own and carry a gun....right?
