I saw this article in the original thread.
The fact that Nguyen is being charged and could do some hard time for putting guns in the hands of Spengler (and that her arrest is being widely publicized) is a very good thing.
I think that LE/FBI spokespersons should capitalize on the exposure of the recent shootings to further publicly hammer the point that if anyone provides full access or purchases any weapons for someone else that they're putting their freedom in that someone else's hands - no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Make an example of Nguyen; she played no small part in the death of two fire fighters - fuck her. (If Nancy Lanza was alive, I'd feel the same about her.)
Cracking down hard on straw purchasers and irresponsible gun owners is a means of gun control that I can get behind 100%, without qualm.
RIP volunteer fire fighters Michael Chiapperini, 43, and Tomasz Kaczowka, 19. Hoping that their colleagues Theodore Scardino and Joseph Hofstetter remain in stable condition and recover fully.
