A 17 year old can't be talking about buying a handgun without being in
a conspiracy to do something illegal.

Really??? Horse****! But, again, what does this have to do with
Zimmerman's innocence or guilt?

It goes toward proving Travonn was not the innocent 14 year old we see
in that Hollister T shirt and that he was likely to have been the
aggressor.
Travonn brags about being "Gangsta"

But I suppose that Zimmerman lying about things in this very case, plus
his KNOWN (and arrested for) aggression and violence doesn't go toward
proving Zimmerman isn't the innocent victim he tries to make out to be,
right?

Sure. But something about Federal law and under 18 can not buy handguns.
So to buy one you have to be breaking the law.

Federal law says you have to be 21 to buy a handgun or ammo for a handgun.

18 U.S.C. 922(b)(1), 27 CFR 478.99(b)

We do have a Florida law about it tho.

It is unlawful to sell, give, barter, lend or transfer a firearm or
other weapon other than an ordinary pocketknife to a minor less than
the age of 18 without his parent’s permission, or to any person of
unsound mind.

It is unlawful for any dealer to sell or transfer any firearm, pistol,
Springfield rifle or other repeating rifle to a minor.

A minor less than 18 years of age may not possess a firearm, other
than an unloaded firearm at his home, unless engaged in lawful
activities.


Reads a bit ambiguous to me.

You can't sell or give a firearm to a minor under 18 without a note from
the parents.

A dealer can't sell a firearm to a minor.

So, are those over 18 considered minors?

And what lawful activities allow a minor under 18 to possess a loaded
firearm.

Funny stuff on first reading.

790.23;

4. Has been adjudicated mentally defective or has been committed to a
mental institution by a court and as a result is prohibited by federal
law from purchasing a firearm.
a. As used in this subparagraph, “adjudicated mentally defective�
means a determination by a court that a person, as a result of marked
subnormal intelligence, or mental illness, incompetency, condition, or
disease, is a danger to himself or herself or to others or lacks the
mental capacity to contract or manage his or her own affairs. The
phrase includes a judicial finding of incapacity under s.
744.331(6)(a), an acquittal by reason of insanity of a person charged
with a criminal offense, and a judicial finding that a criminal
defendant is not competent to stand trial.

-----------------------------------------

So how is this accomplished without benefit of a background check, the
data of which may include pertinent information regarding the
"mentally defective" nature of the buyer or transferee?

Hunting or target shooting to name a couple lawful activities.
