I know the Senator keeps abreast of things, especially affecting justice, especially affecting juveniles. I inquire of the Senator as to whether or not he knows that where more than 1,700 guns, gun purchases, were denied to prohibited buyers, unstable felons and criminals have been allowed to buy guns because they were unable to thoroughly check the backgrounds before the guns were sold. Is the Senator aware of that?
