Background checks don’t work.

Nearly every mass shooting in the last 20 years had a perpetrator who managed to slip through background checks. Some were even on LEO/FBI radar.

And the last high-profile shooter was denied a suppressor after a preliminary check. Stands to reason that he had a gun, if he was buying a suppressor.

If I’ve gotten good info on that circumstance, the FFL holder terminated his background check. I’m assuming it wasn’t sent to ATF, who might have followed up and tried to confiscate prohibited firearms. I hope the FFL dealer doesn’t get hammered.
