ATTENTION: As usual when people who know nothing about guns write about them they often get it wrong. We are told he had a Ruger AR 15, also know as a Bushmaster. A Bushmaster is brand name of an AR15, it manufactured by Bushmaster whom are not Ruger. Ruger's has their own line AR15's called The 556.

I looked it up.

– Honorable Discharge – exceeded the standards
– General Discharge – If their service was satisfactory, but failed to meet certain requirements, they receive a General discharge under Honorable Conditions
– Other Than Honorable conditions discharge – Adulterers, people found guilty of civilian crimes, people who conduct violence, etc. receive this. Are not allowed to re-enlist and lose most VA benefits.
– Bad Conduct Discharge – usually given to people who have done something so bad they’re about to be sentenced to Military Prison and have just been court martialed. They are stripped of all veterans benefits.

This guy dodged all four of these ways to be discharged, and received the worst possible,

– Dishonorable Discharge – Given to people who’s actions are found to be, quote , “Reprehensible”.

Murder, Sexual Assault are common reasons. Beau Berghdahl just got Dishonorably Discharged because of his stunt.

One of the conditions of Dishonorable Discharge is you’re not allowed to own firearms, so in addition to “don’t murder” this guy was already breaking firearm laws, already on the books, just by owning his guns. No new law would have prevented this.

My guess? He sexually assaulted somebody and got kicked out of the military for it."

And More: "MrE says:

IIRC, dishonorable discharges are prohibited by the Gun Control Act of 1968 from possessing firearms. WTH was he doing with that gun? Almost like criminals don’t care about laws, or something. (Or is CBS reporting fake news????)"

And..."mazziflol says:

The dishonorable discharge is based on a general court-martial conviction. This means the conviction is a felony, regardless of what the underlying offense may have been. The convicted felon is banned from possessing a firearm including Title II Firearms (a Silencer, SBR, SBS, AOW, or Machine Gun)."

SO... He Was An Illegal Gun Owner, A Criminal, A Felon!
