Asking for some feedback
I was rereading the "Fatal Gaps" report from the MAIG folks and I inferred that some states, which seem to seriously under report mental health issues to the FBI data base, may be failing to make those reports due to privacy issues.
The database used in the NICS currently includes information as to why a purchaser may be declined permission to buy a firearm and enough identifying info to accurately distinguish one 'John Smith' from all the others.
Would it be a problem to set up an FBI managed database for NICS purposes which contains only the identifying info for prohibited buyers and a pointers to whatever state agency has made that determination? This way the nature of the issue remains private but the prohibited person's record does make it to the database.
Any thoughts?

(6,642 posts)in posting in this Group, so you don't really expect any courtesy or "contributions," do you gunner? Now go on back to the Gungeon and brag to your NRA apologist buddies how you really told those "grabbers" a thing or two.
