Gov. Jack Markell is poised to sign several gun control bills that his administration pushed during this year's legislative session.
One bill to be signed by the governor on Wednesday authorizes Delaware to send mental health records on individuals to a federal gun purchase background check database. After the 2007 shootings at Virginia Tech, Congress required states to provide mental health information to the federal database, but state officials noted that a patients' rights bill prevented Delaware from sending information that might result in the state denying a gun purchase to the federal database.
Other bills to be signed into law regard gun disposal and recovery, and possession of firearms while intoxicated.

All the laws in the world don't matter if your a rich and powerful person , they just drop the serious stuff and help you get out of the jam your in. Look at our own states attorney, he should have been locked up for 10 years for being drunk and in possesion of a gun, but since it was Ruark, they dropped the serious charge and let him plead out to a minor charge. A young black kid makes a mistake and all He!! breaks loose!!!!
