why mental health checks for guns can't pass muster....

This is one reason mental health checks for gun purchases can't pass muster.......they take too long. and the number of normal people buying guns vs. the criminals and crazies make it an undue burden on the Rights of law abiding citizens......which is why anti gun leadership is pushing for them......and their minions are following their lead...

"Klan Compromise" Forces Sheriff To Break Gun Laws In NC

North Carolina’s relatively new (December 1, 2015) requirement to have mental health background checks on handgun purchasers hasn’t saved any lives, but it sure has created a mess as antiquated record-keeping systems run headlong into legal requirements for a timely search compounded by the demands of the North Carolina Sheriff’s Association to keep a Jim Crow-era pistol permitting system in place last year.

It may soon take as long to get a handgun as it does to get a machine gun. This is entirely absurd.

To get a gun permit in Mecklenburg County, there is a wait.

“It takes 10 days in California, six to seven weeks in Mecklenburg and now were hearing it might be six months,” said Larry Hyatt, gun store owner. “It’s totally unacceptable.”

Hyatt runs one of the busiest gun stores in the country. But there is nothing busy about a shelf in his store.
“These are handguns on hold while people are waiting for their permits,” Hyatt said while pointing at guns. “And this is just the G’s and H’s. There is almost 500 handguns waiting for permits.”

The number of permit requests flowing through the clerk’s office has been consistent, averaging 130 per month. But then in December, the number exploded to more than 2,000. And last month it was more than 2,500.

----------------.

Part of that compromise gave sheriffs only 14 days to approve or deny permits. The problem is the mental health checks have been taking far longer than two weeks.

“So it kind of puts us in a dilemma,” said Sheriff Irwin Carmichael, Mecklenburg County. “So we go ahead and issue permits and let everyone know in 14 days or wait till we get all of this medical information back? I’m always going to err on the side of safety.”

Translation: the new law is forcing the sheriff to break the law to keep the public safe.

and of course this anti gun sherif is simply not granting permits that are the Right of the citizens............

Carmichael is denying citizens the right to bear handguns for up to six months because he’s more scared of people being hurt by a person who shouldn’t have received a handgun due to mental health concerns (a small group) than he cares are about people being injured because they needed a gun, but couldn’t get one (the rest of the county).

Sheriff Carmichael is more interested in covering his own butt politically than he is defending his constituents, and is instead encouraging his constituents to go one of two other routes.

The first and fastest option for Mecklenberg County residents is for them to buy firearms from private sellers instead of FFLs.

North Carolina’s Jim Crow-era pistol-permitting system—explicitly designed to keep minorities disarmed—still exists thanks to sheriffs like Carmichael, who shamefully fought to keep the racist scheme in place last year. Handgun purchasers are technically required to obtain a handgun permit from their county sheriff, but as private sellers are not required to actually do anything with them, the paper permits can be easily ignored.

Put bluntly, Carmichael and North Carolina’s other sheriffs who fought to kep the KKK-inspired system are driving people to the private market and sales that are just outside the law.

I run insta-check here in South Dakota, It takes all of two minutes or less for people to walk out my door with firearm...

Of Course here in South Dakota we have an extremely low crime rate do to many, many times firearms as compared to the population here...

So rather than speed up the mental health background checks.....you insist that we have none?

Same with criminal background checks I suppose?

And do you even bother with locks on your doors? Even bother to lock the doors on your car? Because you know those can be circumvented.

Criminals will be criminals that's why they are called criminals no Amount of new laws will change that.dumbass

So....why do you lock your doors?

Don't need to, I live in north western South Dakota. I don't even know if I have a key to my home doors haven't locked them in years...

So you leave your house completely unlocked, windows down?

Same with your car and place of business, huh?

My house, sure.
My business I keep locked, obviously, mostly because of the liability reasons, I rarely lock my vehicle.

Why? Criminals will be criminals. Locks can be bypassed.

Why would you *ever* lock your vehicle if you believe what you do about criminals?

I travel a fair amount, and a byproduct of socialism is a high rate of criminal behavior.

What relevance would that have? Since criminals will be criminals, what would be the point in locking any doors?

Um, ever?
