Double check “background” check
Listened to an interview with a guy talking about his new software. It is basically an additional background check that skims socials and other public info for trigger statements. At which point a gun seller could decline the sell or talk to the buyer for clarification. Sounds like industry companies are backing the company.

Interview: FYI the last 20-30 minutes summarizes the program pretty well.

Thoughts on this?
My initial thought is that it sounds like a solid tool for sellers. It sounds like the people behind it are trying to avoid its misuse.Last edited by The Hobbit; November 16th, 2023 at 08:50 PM.

It won't be long until the lack of a social media presence will be considered suspicious.
Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

Re: Double check “background” check
Dealers already have the ability to decline any sale for any reason. I don't expect them to ignore overheard statements like "My dope addict neighbor is paying me twice the sticker price to get this for him", but I won't do business with one who feels the need to do some "extra" checks on me, beyond what the law requires. There are still dealers out there who know the law, and shun the BS, and I've happily driven a few hours to patronize them over closer "experts".Get your "Guns Save Lives" stickers today!

This is why if you choose to be on various social media platforms you set your account to private where only people you allow can view your content.
