For what exactly? And how would that have stopped Cruz from buying ten
guns? Let's say on one of the visits to the home where he was living
with his mother, where she called the cops, she was willing to press
charges. So, they arrest him on a disorderly person's offense.
So? He's out on $1000 bail and he can still go to Dicks, buy whatever
he wants. He gets convicted, he's fined $500. He still can go to
Dicks and buy whatever he wants. You could repeat that process many
times, he still could buy whatever he wanted. He was being treated for mental
problems, no matter, he can still go to Dicks, buy whatever he wants.
It would take a FELONY conviction
and hopefully that would make it to the NICS database in DC and
only then would he have been blocked in FL. Does that make sense to
you? As opposed to a reasonable permit process, where the abnormal
behavior, all the police calls, being treated for mental health,
were readily available and would be valid reasons to deny the permit?





He could have been out on bond, but could not have any guns as a
condition of the bond.

So, rather than look at each person that wants to actually buy a gun,
you too think there should be a huge big govt database in DC that now
will include anyone arrested for disorderly conduct? The NRA will
never agree to it, it sure looks highly dubious to me too. When
Brinks wants to hire a guard or a defense contractor needs a security
clearance for someone, do they turn to one database in DC that has
millions of people in it? No, they those are handled by a real background
check of the one individual that's applying.

You mean a real background check like Snowden or Manning passed with
flying colors?
