Street gang linked to gun store theft of over 100 guns

[Saltwater60]

I’m shocked, gang members steal guns? I thought us legal gun owners killed everyone.
Philadelphia juvenile street gang linked to thefts of nearly 100 firearms from Pennsylvania gun stor

Impossible. Fake news. People who obey the law, have spent hundreds of dollars and many hours on a permit process they know damn well is unconstitutional, are the real problem. Just ask Whorechul. She doesn't need any data to know we're evil.

These are poor, disadvantaged, underprivileged, misunderstood fine young men who just need a few bucks to get them by while they turn their lives around. Whitey is keeping them down, 'ya know.

So if we close all the guns stores then no one will be able to rob them. INSTANT UTOPIA.

I hope they passed their background checks

 

[BMF JK]

That’s it ban gun stores !

 

[holdover]

So when some of those guns make it to NY and crimes are committed with them . the governor ( Dictator) will make new laws making it more difficult to legally buy guns .

It makes less sense than she does . it prevents nothing .

Makes sense, if banks didnt have any money , there would be no more bank robbery's.

if men didnt have any peckers they couldnt rape anyone.

I would think a background check for 100 guns at once would throw up a flag someplace....

 

[pshift]

It was the ATF. All of the stolen guns were non-compliant models...

I would think a background check for 100 guns at once would throw up a flag someplace....

IIRC the NICS check only specifies "one" or "more than one". There is no difference between 2 and 200 when running the check.

Gangs (structural and random "friends") tend to use juveniles to commit felonious crimes simply because they can essentially get away with them.
Really, what are the authorities going to do?
Gang leaders/thugs will bring along someone along under18 that takes the fall for guns/drugs if they're detained by the Po-Po...

Offhand, I would like to see the authorities use even a small part of the vast surveillance technology they constantly aim at the law-abiding in an effort to start going after real criminals.

But that would be too much like work. "It's too hard" would be the lamentations throughout the halls of the elites.

Then again...those same elites would likely get caught up in their own web since they seem completely incapable of being law-abiding.

Officer safety would be jeopardized by going after likely-armed criminals. Better to continually chip away at the tolerance of the populace in general with soft targets like vehicle and traffic, and once in a while score a big bust as a byproduct to keep the public from questioning too much. Never mind that’s what they signed up for, carry weapons for, and train for. Something about live by the sword die by the sword (or it’s modern analogues) seems unpalatable to the very people who choose a career doing just that. So, maybe manage a grocery store, and let someone who well and truly doesn’t give a fuck but has a strict moral compass uphold the laws?

Sorry, must’ve got an extra shot of cynicism in my coffee this morning…. Or something.
