      …remind me again how this person was certified to own a firearm?..

      U.S. Marine - Iraq War Veteran (04-08) with high qualifications on the rifle range and no criminal record. Husband and a father. Gainfully employed.

      So why would you disqualify this person in advance based on that history?

        At this time there’s nothing in the man’s history that would lead anyone to believe that he couldn’t be trusted. He was a husband and a father. He was a U.S. Marine (served 04-08) and he had no criminal history. He likely would have passed any 1st world ownership test.

        No idea what happened to the guy to make him do this but I’m sure it will come out eventually.
