WH: DOJ will work on background checks for guns until Congress passes gun laws

It will be interesting to see if sales of whatever pistol the whacko used on the Sikhs jumps when they identify it.

How does this comment pertain to this thread at all?

It was a Springfield XD, or more likely XDm, 9mm. He passed the background check, and bought it at a LGS.

Perhaps they should scrutinize anyone with a less than honorable discharge more now. That seems logical, but the bigger problem is mental illness in general, and how do you define that without blocking a lot of good people that maybe just had a nervous breakdown during a divorce or something. Basically, if they want to scrutinize everyone's medical history, which they will inherently have FULL ACCESS to by the way under Obamacare, then we will no longer have any "shall issue" states, and everyone will get denied for frivolous reasons arbitrarily, like in CA and NY. "May issue" will result in -- "will not issue unless you are friends with the politicians".

to take it one step further perhaps we need real time monitoring of a persons mental state to ensure the safety of all. I was listening to wls and they were interviewing an atf agent and he said"we are looking at the purchase of the gun and if they bought any ammunition or extra magazine" radio guy "you guys keep track of that stufff?" atf agent "yes"

How would the ATF know if I purchase ammo or extra magazines?

After they serve the search warrant, F Troop will produce an inventory of what they found.

Possibly credit card slips. I also wonder how much information our gun shops are giving out. We just saw that range in Wisconsin was giving info to local PoPo. I remember a few years ago, a gun shop in SB tipped police off that some guy bought a bunch of ammo. The police raided him.

This article really says nothing. How would they improve background checks? Maybe they mean to do a better job of keeping the NICS database more up to date? Or will they try to add more things that would disqualify one from owning a firearm? I see this as more politcal smoke and mirrors.

When this admin says they will improve something, it simply means slow it down with more red tape. Their goal is to eliminate guns.

BTW, are these the same DOJ bastards that were running an illegal gun operation with Mexico?

yes they are.

Obama: Running (and ruining) the country by executive order. To him, the Constitution means nothing.

And that is indeed key. Right now, Obama see's himself as kin. With another term, all bets are off.

I don't use reward cards at stores I buy them from...they can track it through that also. We have a right to privacy and it's none of their business
