Member Posts: 92 ✭✭
Friend of mine at work, legal resident alien, has "Green Card", working on his U.S. Citizenship, wants to buy a weapon ( hand gun ), can I legaly sell him one of my extra weapons? I have know this guy for over three years. Good guy. Does he need to do anything special, do I? Or do I just need to tell him to forget about it?
Next question.
I was asked this at work also today by one of the doctors I work with. His son was picked up by the police for "Defecating" on the grave of his former teacher. Charged with a: Class 2B Felony. Is there such a charge?
I know, wiered questions. Need all the help I can get.

Since this is a violation of state law it's impossible to answer your question without knowing where it was committed.
Are you sure he wasn't charged with desecration rather than defecation?
The doctors son is a student at Vanderbuilt, where ever that is? I guess my question is: is there really a class 2B felony for taking a DUMP on a grave. I thought it would be "desecration of a grave site", is that a class 2B felony?
Mosin,
Should have been more specific, the friend wants to buy one of my handguns, but also wants to buy a rifle for deer season. He said he went down to the local gun shop to try and buy a weapon and they gave him a real hard time. This is in Texas. Dont realy know who else to ask but the people on this board.
Problem I have at work, I reload, so everybody there thinks I have all the answers to ALL GUN relates questions. Truth is, I Don't Know Squat. Have told these people this, but still get asked all the questions. I think I will start charging them research time, $20.00 an hour should do.

I am not a US citizen, also a legal alien with green card. As long as he is not a convicted felon he can legally own a firearm. In Florida I even got a CCW permit. Just ask for a copy of his driver's license and his green card or at least his alien #. You're not required by law but if he's a friend he won't mind. When I sell a gun to a friend I actually make them sign a little Bill of Sale with date and gun's serial #.

According to Tennessee law:
39-17-311. Desecration of venerated object
(a) A person commits an offense who intentionally desecrates:
(1) A place of worship or burial; or
(2) A state or national flag.
(b) A violation of this section is a Class A misdemeanor.
40-35-111. Authorized terms of imprisonment and fines for felonies and misdemeanors
(e) The authorized terms of imprisonment and fines for misdemeanors are:
(1) Class A misdemeanor, not greater than eleven (11) months twenty-nine (29) days or a fine not to exceed two thousand five hundred dollars ($ 2,500), or both, unless otherwise provided by statute;

And that punk crapping on the grave of his former teacher
is sick and should be taken out of society.

you have no "founding fathers" here. Become a citizen
and enjoy the benefits and freedoms of this country.
Legal residents (green card) pay taxes, many serve as volunteers in our military forces and otherwise are productive members of our society entitled to most of the rights and privileges of our nation.
If you disagree with that, please explain why they are not to my wife and stepson who have already contributed far more than many so-called natives.

The hassle he is getting is this:
To buy a gun at a gun shop, green card holders need to have their card with them and 3 months consecutive proof of residence. This has to be in the form of a bill with their name and address on it. The 3 months need to start with the most recent month and go back. So he would need July, June, & May of 05.
Any bill will work. The shop needs to keep a copy of the bills with the 4473 yellow form.
I immagine you could sell a personal firearm to him. But make sure you get / give a receipt with both of your info on it.
However, I think you would be best holding off on selling him one of yours till he buys something from a shop. Maybe he's not telling you something!!!!
Regards,
I will take my friend down to the gun store and make sure he can legaly buy one from them first.
As far as the "PooP" thing, Yes, the kid is a real A--hole, I was just woundering if there was such a punishment as a Class 2B Felony!
Thanks again to all that responded.

charged as desecration of a grave where I live and it is a felony.
Guns only have two enemies: Rust and Liberals....
Life......if you don't get over it, it will get you....
down here that would be charged as a felony desecration of a grave, and they take that right serious down in these parts...
The legal resident alien would be best served by going through the process of becoming a citizen....I would be unlikely to sell a firearm to a non-resident...

you have no "founding fathers" here. Become a citizen

Rong, this has to be the most ridiculous statement ever... Maybe you should take an american history class. Legal aliens have to in order to become a citizen. Besides the entire process takes up to six to eight years, in the meanwhile being productive members of the society.
Those people should not be allowed to defend themselves? Do you really believe that this is what the founding fathers would want?

Drobs, I could be wrong but I believe this is only if you do not have a valid driver's license of the state in wich you are purchasing a firearm and to prove you residency. Again it could vary from state to state, but in Florida that what the law is.

I don't think the founding fathers had a clue what
200+ years of corruption and open boarders would
do to this country.
Once one becomes a legal citizen and law abiding
he/she can enjoy the benefits and freedoms of this
country.
The world has changed ,the U.S. is no longer
a melting pot of hard working immigrants contributing
to society. There was a time and need for that but no more.
Granted, there probably are a few but I don't see
'em.Don't need anymore to drag down the country, we have enough
already that call themselves citizens.
2. You are the people who keep electing the worthless POS that write your restrictive laws.
3. If you do not like jumping through hoops move to a decent state and quit whinning about your laws.
4. If you won't move or don't vote these dudes out shutup and soldier.quote:Originally posted by rong

Guess you missed this part of the post
quote:legal resident alien, has "Green Card", working on his U.S. Citizenship
Unless you are an American Indian all of your ancestors were aliens at one time. The immigrants who came here to build this country should have been denied guns when settling the frontier? Oh that was OK because they were white? You are a bigot who sees anyone who's not from here as a threat or less than human. If they are here legally more power to them If they want to become a citizen great I can't understand why they wouldn't want too. If they want a gun ditto.

Of course I'm out of my mind. It's dark and scary in there.
anyhoo because the laws are the laws and aliens are allowed to
vote in certain areas and help elect corrupt
politicians to office. Give 'em all guns,bombs and boxcutters
it's their Alienable rights!
As far as being a bigot,no I listen to and accept other people's
opinion on occasion.
Common Sense is an Uncommon Virtue.
Unless you are an American Indian all of your ancestors were aliens at one time.
Even if you ARE an Indian, your ancestors likely came from somewhere else and were once aliens.
