The two previous records also were recorded on Black Friday&#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report continues with previously reported details about NICS, failures to detect criminals, missing records, the need for more resources, and surging gun sales, which have slowed since Obama, but continue under Trump.<\/p>\n<h2>The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:<\/h2>\n<p>Virtually every lamestream \u201cnews\u201d outlet on Saturday carried an identical story &#8212; as if Guinness World Records was the only reason for this report. Every single story &#8212; Google it for yourself &#8212; used identical facts, spin, and lack of any real relevance. This demonstrates the stories have one source &#8212; a government \u201crelease\u201d &#8212; and no independent reporting. Federal agents managed this &#8220;news.&#8221; Reporters were complicit.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI set a record for checks! The FBI had to pull staff from other crucial tasks to manage the management of innocent shoppers! The federal agencies spent enough money to beef up the system from last year\u2019s record, to handle this year\u2019s record! Here, lapdogs, take your handout. Everyone did.<\/p>\n<p>Missing was the blatantly obvious &#8212; were any criminals caught, any crime stopped, by this over-hyped, ultra expensive, democrat-promoted system? Not one word addressed that &#8212; the supposed reason the thing exists. Not one story posed the question. It is a 100% error of omission or misguided spin. Hooray for our side, we set a record! Did we do any good? Who cares, we don\u2019t report on that. Stories demanding more background check something have flooded the news outlets for months previously.<\/p>\n<p>Readers can count on more stories soon calling for more checks. As soon as a psycho or jihadi is unaffected by the system (because it is flawed at its core), and people are murdered (called a \u201cshooting\u201d by the &#8220;news&#8221;), calls for more checks will appear simultaneously, by coincidence.<\/p>\n<h2>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/korwin-gun-stupidity-must-end\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"korwin-media-continues-to-deceive-with-background-check-news\" title=\"Korwin: Media Continues to Deceive with Background Check 'News'\">Gun Stupidity Must End<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The checks delayed innocent people from buying guns without due process, providing identifying information of innocent people exercising their constitutional rights to federal police agents. It also registered every single gun purchased, with the cost and record keeping totally absorbed by firearms dealers, required by law to do and retain the paperwork (in addition to electronic data sent to a central-command office in West Virginia). The FBI can arrest any dealer who does not comply, saving the FBI from the grueling, expensive task, and giving them tremendous power, which they like.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor more than 20 years the system has served as the centerpiece of the government\u2019s effort to block criminals from obtaining firearms,\u201d according to every published report scanned for this article.<\/p>\n<p>Every type of criminal known however &#8212; drug dealers, gang bangers, psychos, muslim jihadis, armed and dangerous fugitives, domestic abusers, mass murderers &#8212; all of them, remain armed. At what point will the system be declared a failure and closed?<\/p>\n<p>No report on the system\u2019s actual successes (criminals stopped and imprisoned) has been promoted. Because there isn\u2019t one. Prof. John Lott\u2019s study shows false positives rate (innocent people falsely denied) in the 99% range. The math below bears this out. Total denials hover at about 1%, but arrests based on denials are not made.

If all were convictions (impossible but), 77\/6,000,000 = 0.00001283 (12.83 millionths convictions). Not a great return on investment. Politifact concludes, \u201cIn a significant number of cases, no crime was committed and other cases are not provable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you see a reporter, ask, \u201cHow many people found by NICS are arrested?\u201d and \u201cHow many people found by NICS are convicted of anything?\u201d After the deafening silence, ask, \u201cShould your report include that, and if not, are you reporting the full story fairly?\u201d You know the answers. They are not.<\/p>\n<p>I stand by my frequent admonition: \u201cIf it\u2019s in the \u2018news\u2019 and it\u2019s about guns, it\u2019s probably 100% wrong.\u201d At best, it\u2019s as deceptive as
