Delegate Questions AG On Gun Backlog

A Maryland delegate says he is asking the attorney general whether it's legal for state police to allow up to 200 employees from five agencies to view prospective gun buyers' information as the state churns through an application backlog.

Delegate Kevin Kelly, an Allegany County Democrat, wrote Attorney General Douglas Gansler seeking details on a three-day "All Hands on Deck" effort that started Saturday to handle tens of thousands of applications filed ahead of the Firearm Safety Act's Oct. 1 effective date.

"As one of these applicants I find it offensive, reprehensible and hopefully illegal that (nonpolice) personnel have access to the private information of Law Abiding firearms purchasers," Kelly wrote.

I find it reprehensible that the government is requiring citizens to traverse so many hoops in order to purchase a weapon. Could the MD politician just be supporting the Democratic Line for gun control and in effect clouding the issue with verbiage in order to slow down the approval process prior to 1 October?

I find it great that the complaining delegate is a dem that doesn't support the legislation.
