They take your word for it that you have not been court martialled? They don't even check that? That's in the feds hands already, is it not? If they can't get it right with what they have already...

Come on now libs. Speak up. If they can't use the information they already have, what good will more restrictions be?

No idea what this is about, but wasn't this in Texas? The state likely to choose the shortest legal path to get a gun?

We just set up a background check policy for employees in NY having access to DHS-regulated chemicals and we don't flag for 'court martials' per se. Instead, we have a list of crimes (sedition, fraud, etc) that you have to be found guilty of in state or federal court.

And the nut job in Las Vegas legally purchased guns (a bunch of them).

How about common sense measures? Magazine size? No bump stocks?

It's like this country (read NRA) has sat around and thought "what can we do to make it easier for a nut job to kill as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time?"

Oh I know, bump stocks will allow you to fire off about 600 rounds per minute, larger magazine capacity to reduce the time someone is not firing when changing out magazines, noise suppressors - make it more difficult to pinpoint a shooter's location....

I think the bump stock is a no brainer. Don't have a problem with suppressors. Don't have a problem with selling anymore large clips. mental health issue, will it hinder people getting treatment if they know your identity will be shared? Limiting the purchase of certain guns in number over a certain amount of time .
