And as for alerting the Cops? Look at what we're seeing in Uvalde and across the US in general.
You think the Cops care? You think they're going to do anything about it? The state of Policing in America is irreparably broken.

I'm not assigning blame to the vendor, just wondering about how someone can hand over an AR-15 and hundreds of rounds of live ammo to some random kid on his 18th birthday and feel everything seems fine. I guess any vendor probably deals with lots of nuts and nothing generally goes wrong, but a kid showing up and asking for that gun and that ammo seems like a mental alarm bell situation. It's probably just too alien a culture for me to really empathize with.
