The first guns I bought after they imposed background checks did not go well. I was denied because the Pennsylvania data base that they used for gun purchases had an incorrect social security number despite the fact that I had been paying taxes and submitting tax returns to the same state for 25 years.
It took my state representative and a month to get it fixed. In the mean time, the guns that I had bought at auction were resold and I never did get them.
That is why the government can not take forever to approve a background check. |

| I should add that I am an army veteran with an honorable discharge, never charged with any crime, and had a Professional Engineering License in four states. But the government would not approve my purchase of a gun because their records were incorrect. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
