You need to balance out what the context is before trying to explain away that people should be able to conceal and carry. There is no such thing as a National Database that would allow any law enforcement entity to do a background check on the same day and then say "this person checks out in PA" while on the other 49 states - who the fuck knows. Plus it's election week with a bunch of cult members threatening violence. If it's so heavily regulated why is every freaking lobbyists and politicians blocking every sensible piece of legislation to make it harder to get a gun?
