[More]
I mean, it's not like being able to comment is in the vital interests of the American people.

A 'Progressive' Dilemma

Wenliang Sun, 26, came to the attention of UCF Police after university staff reported a “dramatic change” in his appearance and behavior — including spending nearly $70,000 cash on a new car “out of the blue” — the university said in a news release. [More]
Those are triggers for deportation but being part of a gang or worshipping at a radical mosque are not?  And does that not prove a need for through vetting of foreign nationals?

Ah, but here's the real reason for all the hubbub:
When asked whether he wanted to harm himself or anybody else, Sun said no, but police were concerned that he referred to his weapon as a “sniper rifle” instead of a “hunting rifle,” Beary said.
I'm more concerned with "Only Ones" calling their "weapons of war" "patrol rifles."

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Arsenal' Is

Upper Darby police showed evidence they say they pulled from Sun’s bedroom, including a military-style ballistic vest, ski mask, military web gear with pouches to hold ammunition clips, a high-powered crossbow and arrows, a bullet loading dock for an AR-15 and AK-47, an empty box for a gun-making kit, 20 live round, ear protectors for firing, and a strangulation device called a garrote.

Earlier this month, another officer was sentenced for striking a man with his police car during an arrest. Four others face charges related to a scheme to falsify timesheets. Four additional cops were indicted last year on charges related to a high-speed police pursuit that ended in a fiery crash...

Almost Perfect

"To prohibit a citizen from wearing or carrying a war arm ... is an unwarranted restriction upon the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege."

Aside from the presumption of privilege, this is exactly what was intended, and throws the lie back in the teeth of the Burgers and the Stevens of this world that tbhe interpretation is a novel "gun lobby" fiction.
