In reply to the discussion: A look at the 4 gun bills up for vote in Senate [View all]Lee-Lee
(6,324 posts)53. They shou don't have to investigate they have all the evidence they used to put them on the list
Compile that, put it in front of a magistrate.
It's a pre made form in the computer that you cut and paste, and then attach the relevant info to for the judge to review.
Simple- a NICS check throws a flag to the folks who maintain the list as database. They check and see if it's really the same person, then take all the information that was used to justify putting them on the list and push that forward. If it's an active case they contact the local field office to make sure they don't have anything relevant to add, if so they add it.
If they don't have that already- why are they on a list? Just for a Muslim sounding name?
