Here ya go Wayne. A legit purpose with nothing suspicious about it. 50 rounds? Wouldn't raise an eyebrow.

1:25 p.m.

Cho Seung-Hui bought one of the two handguns used in yesterday’s Virginia Tech massacre at a Roanoke gun shop.

John Markell, owner of Roanoke Firearms on Cove Road, said today that three agents from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms visited his shop yesterday. One of the agents told him that the Glock 19 that Markell’s shop sold Cho about five weeks ago was used in the mass shooting.

Markell said he was not in the shop when Cho bought the gun but said nothing stood out about the purchase. Cho produced a Virginia driver’s license, a checkbook with a matching address and an INS card. Cho was a resident alien from South Korea.

Cho paid $571 for the gun and a box of 50 9mm bullets, Markell said.

Liar. The NRA made is possible for Cho to buy the guns.
They liberalized the gun laws in Virginia so there was no background check.

But heck, Bushies don't mind gun violence. It's ten times worswe in Banghdad every single day and you sadists don't seem to mind who gets killed so long as it's not yourselves. Very few of you ever enlist for Iraq.
