Judging from the New York Slimes article I just read, the FBI is now saying it was a "loophole" in the BG check system.

According to the article:

A loophole in the check system allowed the man, Dylann Roof, to buy the .45-caliber handgun despite his having previously admitted to drug possession, the bureau said.

“We are all sick this happened,” said the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey. “We wish we could turn back time.”

The NICS check then would have rightly identified the action and refused the approval then?

This is still BS. If the ‘possession’ was a reportable infraction, it would have been rightly included in the NICS database. Unless the Federal Government is admitting they are drastically deficient in keeping their data updated.

So why is the government promoting the use of marijuana?
