Jeez, I'm glad I live in Northern Wisconsin. Some of you guys must live in Crime Central, USA.
AND I check the history of someone buying my gun to make sure they don't have a history of committing crimes which would not permit them to own a gun.

Is it paranoid of me to google myself to see what comes up for S&G's?

I do a simple search on the state records website that ANYONE has free and open access to..... SO when something is posted PUBLICLY on a website anyone can access for no cost or you can request it via the PUBLIC records office of a government is that still PRIVATE information? It seems weird that they would PUBLICLY make available such "private" info.
Maybe you need to come to terms with that info is not private in today's day and age. Hence why it is now called PUBLIC info.
You know when you apply for a job people do the same thing right? I am curious your thoughts on that? Typically the bitches and moans about the invasion of privacy is the one who has real issues paying for their fancy overpriced cars or fancy stereo systems. Employer's make judgements on offering people jobs based on HISTORY or credit, criminal and reference checks... Because there is evidence that supports relevance and likelihood of these people not making good employees.......AND because employers are nazis!
So if I am paranoid and a tactical mall cop for asking for someone's information then what does the many people who have provided it make them?
Or if he is being a retard just for giggles and to provide humor?
I think CLEARLY he is either a sociopath who needs major major psychiatric help or he is joking around to be funny...
You put on your seat belt not because you will but because you COULD be in an accident.
Really you are going to call BS that I cant find public records on house purchases and cellphone numbers on the internet?

If you know my first and last name you will find ALL of that info on the first page of search results.
You realize you cant steal someone's whole identity or open up credit card accounts etc... with a full name and no social or DOB or place of birth or mothers maiden name or ALL those other silly questions banks and mortgage lenders and credit cards ask you.
This is more for people in states with access to online court records that are instantly searchable for cases - both criminal and civil.
It'd be nice if the law forbidding sales to prohibited persons bothered to give a standard for checking their status (i.e. "so long as you ask them if they are prohibited, you are not liable for their lies" or "you checked their license and it was in-state, you are not liable if it was forged") so we'd at least have a goal to shoot for. Instead, we're left trying to prove a negative to protect ourselves, which is not how felony status is supposed to be utilized or determined.
And I've been asking for semen samples this whole time! Was I going too far?In addition I also requite fingerprints and a DNA sample.
The burden on a seller is not to verify "good moral character" (what an unclean concept ) and shouldn't be. However, our laws currently leave the seller liable if the person is a felon, and since there are ways for such a person to both fall through the cracks or defeat the system, we're left CYA'ing as much as is necessary by checking information.

We should only be obligated to back out of a sale if the status of the buyer is, "beyond a reasonable doubt," that of a prohibited person at the time of sale. If you never exchange anything but gun and money, then you have no further obligation to follow up or terminate the sale. If the buyer mentions in passing no FFL will sell him a gun, or that he will use it to "get even" with somebody, then both the law and common decency should dictate your actions.
Instead we have a nebulous, arbitrarily enforced mess that seems geared more for ensnaring folks in sting operations for the Mayors re-election effort, or nailing guys on the radar for other suspicions. If the prohibitions were important, they'd bother to collar the guys who bounce off the NICS servers

Can you leave any negative feedback about him? If so, I'd destroy him.
