Obama purged the FBI gun sales background database of 500,000 Felons!!

It now appears a decision President Obama made during his administration is one big reason the FBI gun sales background check system fails so often.

Against all logic — and also apparently in secret — the Obama administration decided felons needed to have “…fled across state lines” before they should be included — and this decision PURGED 500,000 felons from that database – thereby allowing them to pass a gun background check and buy weapons.

This from a story by Katie Pavlich of Townhall: TH — During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing this week on Capitol Hill, FBI Deputy Director David Bowdich revealed the Obama Justice Department purged more than 500,000 fugitives from the federal gun background check system. “It’s my understanding that under federal law fugitives cannot legal purchase or possess guns.” Senator Dianne Feinstein, a California Democrat said, “We heard from local law enforcement that the Justice Department has issued a memo that forced the FBI NICS background check data base to drop more than 500,000 names of fugitives with outstanding arrest warrants because it was uncertain whether those fugitives fled across state lines. Mr. Bowdich can you describe why this determination was made by the Justice Department?” Feinstein asked. “That was a decision that was made under the previous administration.” Bowdich responded. “It was the Department of Justice’s Legal Counsel that reviewed the law and believed that it needed to be interpreted so that if someone was a fugitive in a state, there had to be indications they had cross(ed) state lines. Otherwise they were not known to be a fugitive under the law in the way it was interpreted,” Bowdich added.

If you think all this is some kind of mistake after ISIS, the refugee/immigration decisions, Benghazi, the Centcom problems, Fast & Furious, Obamacare and much much more — then you are mistaken.

It’s clear now; Obama was willing to endanger the American people to further his political agenda. I voted for a monster.
