    An international student in Florida made no threats, but his behavior alarmed his roommate and he bought two rifles. Police were called, and now he's being deported for an unrelated visa issue. https://cnn.it/2GmZCtu pic.twitter.com/J3SQSk0h3d

        I have questions: so, how did a foreign student, here on visa, buy a gun? Would he even pull during a background check? Would the fact he is not a citizen throw up red flags to the gun shop? If not with the first gun purchase, red flags with gun #2?

        If you buy from a private person, like a friend or from a gun show, there won't be a back ground check. Hope this helps,,,,

        Good. Maybe in this case the system worked as it was supposed to.

        I would have appreciated if they flagged his behavior, but deporting him is a bit too far.

        I didn’t read the full article so I’m not sure whether he was here on a student visa.

        Protect himself from what? His demons? Being in the US was a privilege. He should have known better than to go buy guns.

        He owned guns legally until he broke conditions of his student visa by no longer attending class. As soon as visa is revoked, owning the firearms is no longer legal

        My point is more about this pervasive gun culture that would make even visitors adopt it as something worth emulating. Why the craze? What does a student need a gun for? Why must one feel they need it because it's a constitutional right?

        Absolutely your argument makes sense and students are less need having a gun considering their propensity to trigger violence. Got it your point..
