Charles Whitman was honorably discharged from the Marines. Lee Harvey Oswald received a hardship discharge from the Marines. Timothy McVeigh was honorably discharged from the Army. Obviously, an honorable discharge wouldn't catch all the deviants. But how many of them used the weapons under discussion to shoot kids in the schools under discussion? Well Whitman used a rifle to shoot students but it was a bolt action, as was Oswald's., McVeigh didn't use a gun at all and racked up a much higher death count. I am not really sure what point they are making in an AR 15 rant. It really sounds more like my argument that banning ARs is pretty meaningless. |

It was his rant against an honorable discharge. I tend to ignore his anti military rants. I understand that if he had served, that would be all we heard about. |

It's obvious Harry knows very little about the military other than what he's been told or heard. He has already proven how easily he is influenced by others. He parrots daily the latest DNC talking points. |

My point was that a honorable discharge shouldn't by itself be the qualifier for obtaining a firearm. The discharge in the cases I cited was not an indicator of decent behavior going forward. An age qualifier of 21 plus a good quality background check are more significant. |

I had proposed a higher age requirement, at least 21, unless the individual had an honorary discharge DD 214. |

I think the honorable discharge was to avoid the age limitation, not the background check, although I doubt any of the ones you mention could not buy a gun in Md or Ma based on what we knew about them before their crime was committed. |
