So Newt won’t. Putting “Brady” in it is like, of course, waving a crucifix at a vampire, even though the system vastly disappointed the Bradyites who pushed for something much more nannily.
I am curious, who is out there complaining about being stymied by that system? It means among other things that the failure to get a Federal no for ANY reason (including systems down) means a yes.
The instant check computers have periodic outages and false positives happen from time to time. Me personally? I'm not big on having to meet some faceless bureaucrat's criteria in order to exercise a God given right. In as much as criminals are going to get firearms anyways (if not have them provided gratis by the DOJ), the Brady Act is simply an intrusion on law abiding citizens.
