to own guns. This kinda blows the argument that stricter gun control will curb murder and mayhem. The younger one wasn't old enough to own or buy a gun. The older brother never applied. He probably wouldn't have been able to lawfully own a gun anyway because of his previous charge in 2009.
They didn't have assault weapons, either, so that blows another argument. Get mad all you gun control posters want, but facts are facts and it's something I've been trying to get you all to think about since Newtown.
WASHINGTON -- The Boston bombing suspects engaged in a deadly firefight with police last week, possessing six bombs, handguns, a rifle and more than 250 rounds of ammunition. But the Tsarnaev brothers did not have proper licenses to possess the firearms, according to the Cambridge Police Department -- a revelation that comes just days after the Senate voted against strengthening and expanding background checks for gun sales.
Cambridge Police Department spokesman Dan Riviello told The Huffington Post that neither Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, nor Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, appeared to have a license to own a handgun.
"The younger brother could not have applied as he is not 21 years of age and the older brother did not have a license to carry and we have no record of him ever applying," Riviello said.
Under state law, residents under 21 can obtain a firearms ID card that allows them to own shotguns or rifles that hold 10 rounds or less.
Reuters reported that the police in Dartmouth, Mass., where the younger brother was a student, also had no record of gun licenses or ID cards for either brother.
