> Do you want a guarantee they’re hypoallergenic

Hypoallergenic dogs don’t exist.

Caveat emptor

> “There’s really, truly no completely, 100 percent hypoallergenic dog. Even hairless dogs can make the allergen,” says John James, a spokesperson for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. “It’s really a marketing term,” says David Stukus, an allergist at Nationwide Children's Hospital and a member of AAFA’s Medical Scientific Council. When I asked several allergists around the country if perplexed owners ever come in allergic to their expensive, supposedly hypoallergenic dog, their answers were unequivocal: “All the time.”

> …although breeds that shed less fur or hair are commonly considered hypoallergenic, the fur or hair itself is not what causes allergies. Rather, it is proteins present in the dander, or small flakes of skin, or saliva. All dogs make these proteins, and all dogs have skin and saliva.

Just ask your town Code Enforcement Office.

Good survey. Pithy, easy.

Well done.

I googled “lead jigs maine” and got that link that sets out the Maine law.

Why do you need a biologist?

Salt or fresh water?

A quick Google would have answered your question

Buy The Fire in Oxford is excellent.

I have a QuadraFire stove as my primary heat for the last 8 years. No issues whatsoever. BUT it cost over $6,000. I think you get what you pay for.

Go take a cold shower.

Great…another Jeep douche moving to Maine.

None. We don’t do that here.

> Why is this such a surprise?

Because I saw probably the only McLaren 720s registered in Maine, and possibly the most expensive registered street car in Maine?

> it would be in the state best interest to know when firearms' are being moved across their border

Well, they KNOW that they were, because the Feds investigated, and released the info. So there you go. THE STATE OF MAINE KNOWS. They do not have to be involved in a FEDERAL investigation in order to know this. So, your mind can now be at ease. The State of Maine knows. Phew.

> US States can very much pass laws regulating firearms

They can't when it involves foreign nationals and stuff moved across the border.

Some kid needed more time to finish their Halloween costume /s

> are they working with the feds?

Why would they have to? Federal authorities are perfectly capable and competent to investigate this. And, again, how do you know they aren't? What leads you to believe that they aren't? And why is this so important to you?

Asking the state to have a commission about something that is federal jurisdiction is like asking a town in Maine to have a commission about Canadian law. What's the point?

It seems as if no one broke the law here. And there's no public policy reason to prosecute or change Maine law.

Maybe you need to study US civics, and the policy and politics of firearm regulation in order to understand this.

> they still work with the feds

Any evidence that Maine law enforcement isn't cooperating with the FBI and ATF? They certainly are if they were asked to.

> how local laws and systems can change to prevent this from occurring again

AGAIN, state law cannot regulate the transfer of firearms. THEY ARE NOT PERMITTED TO. So why have a commission or committee?

> There seems to be no interest by the State of Maine to do something similar in this regard

Maine law has no jurisdiction over the transfer of firearms, or the international trafficking of firearms. The Constitution prevents it.

You asked if they investigated.

Clearly they did.

Maine authorities don't have jurisdiction over what happened with this guy. It's the Feds.

Not Maine authorities. It would be federal. It literally says in the article that the FBI and ATF are investigating.
