    Based on his behavior I would guess that he has bipolar disorder. Moving to Hawaii, going to Ukraine, all this other erratic behavior in the past, all sounds like mania. This was probably a manifestation of delusions of grandeur. If he wrote out an explanation beforehand it will probably be complete nonsense to us that made complete sense to him at the time. If he didn’t give an explanation beforehand, it will probably be impossible for him to explain his reasoning after the fact.

    People complain that these types of rifles count as conceal carry when it comes to bans because you can get a folding stock and keep it in a backpack on you or in your car. IMO, it defeats the purpose of concealed carry if it’s not immediately available. At that point you’re just transporting it.










  • The issue is that some laws make complete sense, but you can have an activist judge or the SC declare it unconstitutional. Legislatures are elected and they can’t be expected to know how a law can be interpreted.

    Even something as simple as a noise ordinance could be considered a first amendment violation in certain cases.

    I live in Illinois, they passed an assault weapons ban last year. Of course the gun people claimed it was unconstitutional because of the 2nd amendment. It’s not but someone tried to make that argument and there’s a non-zero number of judges who would agree with them.
