Another gun store robbed. Time for a law change.

[nra4ever]

I know we should not blame the victim but gun store owners make these robberies too easy. We need to pass a law that requires if you want to sell guns keep them ALL locked in a safe at night. This keeping them in glass cases or with a wire cable is just not being responsible for the times we live in. I know it takes time I know it cost money. Too bad. You want to sell guns keep them all in a safe when the store is closed. We should all be responsible gun owners and do what we can to keep them away from the wrong people.

What do you all think.

Which store was it this time?

^^^ indy trading post I belive this time


Most of the time these stores have cages on the doors and everything is locked up. Driving a stolen vehicle into a store is not going to stop someone from getting into a safe/taking it, or stealing something else in the store.
Many people believe safes are impenetrable which is false and most can easily be broken into. People steal atms that are anchored downn what make you think they won't take a safe?
It's a culture problem and people who are caught doing this and people who get caught with firearms needs a stricter punishment.

So your proposal is to blame the victim of the crime? Do you blame women for being raped because their skirt was too short too? No. Because the only way to effectively police this law is to have random inspections, so your 4th Amendment rights just went out the window because of thieves.

If you want to change the law then increase the penalties for those who steal firearms, traffic in stolen property, are involved in gangs, and no more catch and release of dangerous individuals because be don't have room in our prisons (this also requires prison reform).

I hope this doesn't effect the Ingo group buy...

I know nothing is perfect and that safes and ATMs are taken all the time. Trust me I know! It just seems if we could make it harder and longer to get the guns them it would cut down on the robberies. Most of these are not that well planned and they count on getting in and out quickly before the alarm brings the cops.

Maybe just a delay in picking them up.

 

[stoutguinness]

What oakriver said. We need better enforcement of the laws already in place, not more laws for law abiding citizens

She was "asking for it" huh?

 

[nra4ever]

I don't think this is an unreasonable request and it goes a long way to show we want to be responsible. We all love our guns. I'm just asking you to look at it from the other side that wants to take guns from all of us.

Authorities said the two got into the business by running a stolen vehicle through the side of the buildingAuthorities said the two got into the business by running a stolen vehicle through the side of the building.

The problem is obvious...cars are not sufficiently secured by their owners. If they were kept in locked enclosures and monitored by anti theft systems, they could not be stolen and then rammed into gun stores. There's a law we need.

cars should be locked up in a safe overnight!?

 

[chezuki]

There should be a law against misrepresenting burglaries as "robberies".

 

[nra4ever]

Lol. Ok u got me there. I'll give on that one.

Obviously, we have to do something to keep illegal guns off the street! Think of the children!

I just talked to the owner of Indy Trading Post. He's going to try to be open regular hours tomorrow. If you intend to go, maybe check here or call to make sure though.

Law-abiding gun owners and FFL dealers already are responsible. We jump through every silly hoop .gov puts in our way, no matter how ineffective we know the laws to be.

You're suggesting we add another hurdle that puts the burden of compliance on the law-abiding? And the gun control crowd hasn't even demanded it yet.

And this will in NO way affect the group buy, per Brian (owner).
