How the Highland Park Shooter Obtained His Guns Is Beyond Ridiculous

The number of red flags that have been raised about Robert Crimo III is staggering. Again, this was another preventable tragedy. Crimo went to a rooftop and opened fire on a crowd in Highland Park, Illinois who were there attending an Independence Day event. Seven people were killed with at least another 45 wounded. Crimo was apprehended by police Monday evening, but as with other mass shooters—the number of red flags could stuff the trunk of a car. He was a prolific social media user with numerous posts featuring violent content. He was known to law enforcement. His mental health issues date back as far as middle school. Crimo also had a disturbing family incident which Spencer will dive into later this morning.

So, how did Crimo get his weapons? They were all purchased legally, but in Illinois, you need a Firearm Owners Identification card (FOID) to own guns and ammunition. Crimo’s father co-signed for his son’s card in 2019 even after his past behavior. I have a feeling that this whole family is going to land in hot legal water. If they knew this kid was a problem, did nothing, and then signed a firearms card for him—they deserve to be charged as well (via Chicago Tribune):

Investigators believe Crimo disguised himself as a woman in order to hide his facial tattoos and aid in his escape from the scene, according to Covelli.

After the shooting, Crimo walked to his mother’s house and borrowed her vehicle, Covelli said. There is no indication he shared anything about his alleged involvement in the shooting with his mother.

Following a police alert for the vehicle, an “alert member of community” saw it and called 911, Covelli said.

Before being captured, Crimo drove into Wisconsin and returned to the north suburbs, Covelli said.

After he was apprehended, officers found another rifle in the vehicle, Covelli said, which also appeared to have been legally purchased by Crimo. Three other weapons that were legally purchased were found in his Highwood home.

This is a mess. It’s a circus. If you know your son is a headcase, co-signing for a FOID card is probably one of the most reckless things I’ve ever heard. You cannot make this up. You’ll find out more about the 2019 incident that clearly shows Crimo was messed up in the head, and it would have certainly barred him from getting a FOID.

    ALL WEAPONS WERE LEGALLY PURCHASED

    BUT, BUT, WE ~~ NEED ~~ MORE GUN LAWS – SO THEY TOO CAN BE ~~ IGNORED ~~ DUH ~~

    Anyone who wants a weapon can get a weapon – LEGALLY or ILLEGALLY

    IN THIS DEMONIC-RAT ATMOSPHERE OF HATE CONDONED AND ENCOURAGED BY THE LEFT BY CALLING IT “PEACEFUL PROTESTS” WHEN THE LEFT DOES IT AND “INCURSION” WHEN THE RIGHT DOES IT ==

    THOSE WITH THE INTENT TO KILL – ARE GIVEN TACIT APPROVAL BY THE DEMONIC-RATS TO
    ACT ON THEIR MURDEROUS ATTEMPTS.

    THE BRAINWASHING OF THESE MENTAL CASES IS BEING MADE SO MUCH EASIER BY THE DEMONIC-RATS ALLOWING AND ENCOURAGING DRUGS TO BE BROUGHT INTO OUR COUNTRY THRU THEIR OPEN BORDER TACTICS.

    THE FENTYNAL ALONE BROUGHT IN IS ENOUGH TO KILL HALF OUR POPULATION. THAT IS THE INTENT OF THE DEMONIC-RATS – TO DECREASE OUR POPULATION.

    IF THE DRUGS WON’T DO IT = THE KUNG FLU – AND THE SHOTS – WILL !!!

    STUPID, IGNORANT, BRAIN DEAD PEOPLE REFUSE TO SEE THE TRUE GOAL OF THE “LIBERAL NEW WORLD ORDER.”

      Nanny,
      Drugs are indeed a factor. If you could look all the way back to when this shit began happening regularly you would see that almost all these shooters are on meds for “mental health”. So many people are taking these magic meds to feel normal. These drugs are a true plague on our society and being pushed by almost every medical “professional” with a prescription pad.

    He was given these guns by the FBI/CIA in order to conduct these murders, it is all done so that they can disarm America because they cannot move forward with the One World Order with Americans being armed! These shooters all fit a certain profile; they are Manchurian candidates:
    1. They are always known to the authorities
    2. They usually get their guns illegally but, in this case, they managed to give him a registered gun in order to overcome the prevailing argument that these guns are gained illegally!
    3. Most of these shooters cannot afford to buy a burger let alone a gun costing several hundred dollars
    4. They are all mentally ill and most of the time one or both of the parents are not in the picture!

    In the Parkland shooting in FL and the Uvalde shooting in TX Police were ordered to stand down while the shooter(s) were killing people! Mistakes in their plans reveal that the entire thing is a False Flag!
    And the proof that all the shootings are a false flag is the DEMS always come out immediately and before all facts are known and call for disbandment of guns! They never want to accept another option like hardening the access to the school and letting teachers who are trained conceal carry, no they always go right to disarmament! Which reveals their intentions!
