Hey,
While I was browsing at a local Academy sporting goods shop I saw a fellow (mideastern looking and strong accent) filling out paper work to buy a gun. I was already looking at the pistols under the counter when he came up and started filling out papers on that same counter. Judging by the conversation and attitude he'd already been working with the clerk and had come back to fill out papers. I have no idea what he was going to buy, but the form was for firearms pruchases.
I was still looking at those same guns and he kept looking back at me like I was spying on him even though I was not. He even adjusted hiself so I couldn't read the info on the form like some nerdy school kid trying to make sure his test answers were secure from prying eyes. I honestly hadn't paid him much notice until he started acting like that and I noticed the accent. Also, the clerk stressed that he must fill in "country of origin" on the form. After I left the store I wondered if it is legal for non-citizens to buy guns.
I didn't think non-citizens could. Am I wrong?
