Here we go again
« on: April 25, 2012, 05:51:12 PM »
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the story, the police chief from Greenland, NH was shot and killed just 8 days before retiring. Four other officers were shot but survived. This occurred during a drug raid. The dealer ended up killing his girlfriend then himself during the shootout.

Already the Boston Herald is implying that it's not the fault of the guy who pulled the trigger, not the fault of our failed "War on Drugs" but that it's the fault of the "Gun Show Loophole". ::)

.357 found at N.H. cop killer’s home bought at gun show


One of the guns seized from the home of a man authorities say shot and killed Greenland, N.H., Police Chief Michael Maloney was purchased by the man’s girlfriend at a gun show in January, the New Hampshire Attorney General’s office said today.


Brittany Tibbetts bought the Ruger .357 caliber revolver at a Jan. 16 gun show in Manchester, N.H., the attorney general’s office said. Investigators are still working to determine the origin of the 9 mm pistol found in gunman Cullen Mutrie’s home on Post Road.


Mutrie, 29, fatally shot Maloney and injured four other police officers during a drug raid on his home Apr. 12. He fatally shot Tibbetts, 26, then himself.


   Police say Mutrie and Tibbetts were dealing up to 500 Oxycodone pills every few days from the home.

It says his girlfriend bought the gun.  She might not have had a "record" so she may have been cleared by the FBI.  He may have got her to buy it because he had a record and couldn't.  No loophole there.

No...To be in-line with the "Gun Show Loop-Hole" train of thought; they will blame the manner inwhich you purchased the car....which is even more ludicrous.

No they will just blame the car for global warming.

  Last week some fanatics sawed a guy's head off with a machete, while not far away another one stoned his wife to death..
 
   I wonder if they checked into the machete show or the rockpile "loop hole" ?
