Gaps in F.B.I. Data Undercut Background Checks for Guns

21. I wonder how accurate the database is.

It's full of holes. One problem. You get "false negatives," people that should be blocked that aren't blocked.

But if it's corrupted, then you get false positives. People that shouldn't be blocked that are blocked.

Now the problem of false positives is a deal breaker because we must protect constitutional rights. E-verify.

Now it's irrelevant. Firearm background checks.
