Oregon state troopers are now being called on people who fail the background checks to purchase a firearm.
Officials state that it’s a crime for people who can’t buy a gun to attempt to purchase one. Up until now they have let the law sit on the books, but that’s changing as they have begun enforcement.
Oregon state troopers are now being dispatched when a person tries to buy a gun but fails the background check. It comes after critics complained that state laws that ban certain categories of people from buying guns were not being enforced.
It’s a crime for convicted felons or people with certain known mental health problems to attempt to buy a gun. But until recently not much happened in Oregon if someone tried to skirt the law. That’s now changing, according to an internal state police training bulletin obtained by the gun rights group, Oregon Firearms Federation. Its director, Kevin Starrett, says he’s talked to two upstanding gun buyers who were questioned by state troopers after being inexplicably rejected by the background check computer.
“What they’re doing is a ridiculous waste of time, but they’re doing something and we’ve got to do something, and this is something so this is what we’re going to do,” said Starrett.

That is just stupid
Makes sense! Try buying a firearm when you know you are a felon. Duh huh!
It doesn’t matter. . Point blank. Anyone felon, illegal aliens, or off the charts crazy. If you have the intention to kill. You’ll find a gun. Its all propaganda to take our constitution away. Amend amend amend.. over over again.
It’s against the constitution plain and simple
Now there is no crime being committed here, our Governments are out of control

Hillary Clinton to Muslim Brotherhood terrorists: If you destroyed everything in Egypt starting July 3rd, 2014, I promise to declare Islamic Caliphate in Egypt and support you to free Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood leaders and apply Sharia Law, like what our CIA-made ISIS did in parts of Iraq and Syria days ago! We were ready to do so, in Egypt, July 5th, 2013, but things went wrong when Egyptians went in 35 Millions into streets on June 30th , and then the Egyptian army and Elsisi removed Morsi on July 3rd, 2013! Create a civil war, to press on Elsisi, and create reasons for us to strike Egypt, like attacking embassies, Israel or Suez Canal! Muslim Brother terrorists started today July 3rd, burning, destroying, exploding and killing, waiting for Hillary Clinton and Obama to do what they promised, and orders for terrorism are being sent from their leaders, in Egypt, Qatar, Turkey and through CIA-spy, Omar Afifi, Virginia, USA! They plan also to assassinate Saudi king, and make terrorism in Mekkah and Kuweit, as a punishment for them for supporting Egypt!!! Terrorist codes are also being sent through NOW agents through Abla Fahita, Contemporaryarts1, and TV ads, for mass destruction, bombing, and chemtrail spraying!
Gene Mayer. My hubby was denied simply for being a veteran. He has no record. Same happen to our friend who’s is veteran, and retired fireman who also has never been arrested. So your comment is $#%&!@*ed. Neither of them had any idea they would be denied on this premise. You’re a disrespectful, cowardly liberal idiot who would rather watch your family die than protect them. Sanctimonious p***k!
I don’t care what anyone says this is a violation of the constitution!!!!
WAKE UP-IS NAZY TIME=WW3&UFO HELL INVASION..SO COME HOME
