Hmmm. Maybe it wasn't her job to fix the problem. Eventually it got fixed but we see that applications for CCW were at an all time high coinciding with the pulse night club shooting. Uh, yeah and why is this relevant? Oh, I see. Because Alexander Putnam was in charge of the department at the time so he should not be voted for for Gov of Florida. I see. What a load of crap.

[Celerity]

Is there a link ?

[FatherofFive]

A YEAR!? Couldn’t solve a login problem for a year? Government.

[lastchance]

Load of crap is correct. Background checks were done. Someone else pointed out that the step involved in this brouha-ha was not obligatory under Fl statute but was an extra step made at the Department’s discretion. FDLE also runs checks. Main point no one died or suffered injury because of this lapse and the checks did commence once the problem was brought to light.

The MSM wants us to believe Putnam let untold number of criminals and unstable individual get CCW permits; hence those people went out and massacred scores of nursery school children and puppies all the while waving “I Heart NRA” banners.

[Spok]

And still people expect the government to solve all social ills.

[bigbob]

Obviously stronger gun control laws are needed. /s

[OttawaFreeper]

When it comes to not properly administering laws and not intervening with bad people effectively and all of that leading to tragedy, people like these are far more culpable. Why not shift the discussion towards them?

state Division of Licensing employee identified as Lisa Wilde was unable to log into the system to actually complete these background checks.

Its OK, they're going to transfer her to managing your health care instead.

[Reno89519]

Anybody remotely involved, especially management, should be immediately fired. Those who can be prosecuted should be.

[gibsonguy]

There are plenty of reasons to vote against Putnam in the primary he is an open border never Trumper that said, this is BS.

[BradyLS]

Why would Florida’s background checking system bottle neck at one state employee? Who can’t log in? And especially if that person’s input is not required for complete processing of the form?

That sounds like a system that was designed to fail.

[Doogle]

...has anyone been fired yet?

[deport]

In the end, the state was forced to revoke 291 permits and fired state Division
of Licensing employee Lisa Wilde, who said she was unable to log into the FBI
database to complete the background checks.

People rely on technology FAR too much.

“Adam Putnam, the commissioner of that department, is now running for Governor.”

Oopsie! Not a good thing when you’re running for office! De Santis has an issue to rub this jerk with.

[amigatec]

You do understand that the Pulse Night Club had been out of business for 2 1/2 years before the shooting.

Their business lic was expired and never renewed. Without a lic you cant pay your taxes, you cant buy liquor, etc.

[VeniVidiVici]

This is such crap.
