sensible gun control

[Lee-Lee]

53. Some are- many are not

Here is an example- if you were to walk in and try to buy a gun and you filled out the form stating you did not have a disqualifying mental health issue and were then blocked when they called for a background check- you would have committed a felony by signing the form saying you did not have a disqualifying history.

That happens more than 80,000 times a year- a known prohibited person is actively seeking to a acquire a firearm and commits a Federal Felony doing so.

Less than 100 of those are prosecuted. So a known prohibited person is known to actively be seeking a firearm and commits a crime and it is just ignored and they are left free and uninvestigated to go try and get one on the black market or in another illegal fashion.

When 80,000 felonies that are super easy to prove and prosecute, all involving people illegally trying to buy guns, go I prosecuted every year there is no way you can say the laws are enforced. Some are, some quite clearly are not.
