Ahhh Saturday.

So if the bg check is failing to catch even the easy ones to catch…

The documents include more than 30 reports going back as far as 2011, covering misbehavior by Cruz and some by his younger brother. They add further depth to the emerging portrait of Cruz as an unstable teen who had long been on the radar of law enforcement, behavioral specialists, teachers and fellow students.
Yet Cruz was still able to pass the nation’s gun background check system in February 2017 and obtain an AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle, one that he used to kill 17 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Valentine’s Day.

Couple things here. When a guy like me says little to no support for new gun laws until we can actually use the ones we have reasonably well please do keep the above in mind. Best way to make a bad law of a necessary one is under or selectively enforce. When a guy like me tells AG Sessions to go to hell, I’m recalling the above in the context of agencies like ATF threatening to start taking guns away from medical or recreational pot smokers while failing to stop guys like Cruz.

So when do we get to a place where we admit we must deal with the most ill and threatening among us before they act? Everyday things are deadly too in the hands of the violently insane.
