It's that damn Escape From Prison loophole.

Guys you're all missing the point here, if we just magically didn't have any weapons in our country, he wouldn't have been so driven to break out of prison and commit more crime. Now don't you see the need to limit magazine capacity to save children?!

Probably lied on his 4473 too.

He couldn't possibly have done what was reported. There are LAWS in MA against breaking out of prison, LAWS against a felon being in possession of a firearm, LAWS against the illegal use of a firearm and yet more LAWS against breaking out of prison.

Surely these laws keep us safe from such behavior, right? This article seems a bit late for an April Fool's entry.

Have you seen the name of the newly re-elected Nigerian President? Believe it or not, his name is "Goodluck Jonathan".

Man shoots and "Innocent". President of lawless African nation is going to need a lot of luck. It does seem a bit ironic.

That gives me an idea for a funny pro 2A youtube video. Guy walks up to shady looking character in dark parking lot... They look around suspiciously the open a car trunk to reveal a bunch of guns and they broker a deal on a glock fohtay... Seller then pulls out a 4473 and explains there will be a 10 day wait for the background check. Fade to black, then text appears "background checks... Preventing criminals from obtaining guns since 19xx"

This dude was straight up gansta - you shoot my mother I break out prison get me a piece and mow you down while getting a haircut - no time to wait for parole and kill you quiet like - badass.

The cops took a couple rounds but they are ok and now we have one dead criminal who shoots peoples mothers and one guy who might just slip in the shower inside - two birds one stone.

sorry for the barber though chicks dig scars.

Life imitates art. Seems like an episode of Breakout Kings.

Yeah that name cracked me up too.

Sheldon was identified as the victim by his brother, I. B. Innocent.
