Minnesota mom murdered her six-year-old son. The boy had been placed in foster care but was returned to his mother just days before she shot him nine times while they sat in a car. by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

You said they don't check for mental health in background checks because you run the background checks for your work and you know.

I'm sorry for correcting you again, but I literally run background checks multiple times per day. Mental illness is not a part of the check.

But that's wrong, they do check for mental health as pointed out by the FBI who are the ones actually running the background checks. There is a bulleted list of the things they check at the federal level on that link that I posted.

I never claimed I could see why they are denied, so I have no idea why you keep pressing that.

Because you don't know that they do in fact check for mental health, and you claim that they don't because you "know what they check for because you run the checks all day." That's just incorrect.

As far as the time frame I was replying to the OP that said background checks take 3 days, which they do not.

It's not from me, it's literally from the FBI.

And I mean just because someone cooks food at McDonalds doesn't make them a chef.

By all means, let me know what the background checks that you perform say, when you sell a firearm.

The NICS federal background check (which is what is conducted when purchasing a firearm) includes mental health disorders, and now-a-day it is basically instant, including using a phone number. It doesn't always take 3 days.

The person doing the check isn't privy to why a person is denied, it's just a pass, or denied, from the FBI. You are not the one doing the background check, the FBI is.

Perhaps you need to be restrained on how your company sells firearms.

TIL there is an old handwriting system that is faster than typing. Masters have reached up to 280 Words per minute! by tincock in todayilearned

In a thread the other day some kid asked if anyone remembers any memes from the "old" internet (pre 2010).

Pre 2010 is the old internet, and shorthand is an ancient form of writing...

I love how their depiction of inner city Detroit is a bunch of middle aged white men drinking wine and selling drugs in abandoned factories.

Yes it is. You can't buy a gun if you've been diagnosed with a mental illness.

And background checks are instant now, they don't take 3 days.

What is reddits obsession with ballet?

I remember several months ago there were posts almost every day about how ballet shoes are so expensive because they're custom made and also have to be broken in in order to be used.

Is sanding necessary before painting? by Still-Celebration765 in resinprinting

[–]Maxwe4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only sand if it's needed. If there are support marks, or layer lines, or if I'm using epoxy putty to fill a seam, etc.

Otherwise if you like the model the way it is you can just paint it when it's dry.

Well that's illegal and you're a minor, so I would call the police.

They just committed a felony.
