This week, the panel that reviewed the shooting at Virginia Tech sent their report to the governor. As one might have expected, their review was long on speculation and short on worthwhile, non-biased recommendations.
In an excellent review titled "Irresponsibly Gun Shy", Robert VerBruggen of The American Spectator analyzes the report's anti-gun statements and conclusions. Here's a peek:
The panel also recommends requiring background checks for private sales at gun shows. But again, the facts are that Cho didn't buy his gun from a show, and he passed a background check. And only about 1 percent(pdf) of crime guns come from gun shows anyway. Not only would the policy not have affected the Virginia Tech shooting, it wouldn't prevent many others, either.
Clearly, the panel didn't let the facts stand in the way of their agenda.

Hi,
In the case of top-level management, an executive background check is necessary and vital to the ongoing success of the establishment.Criminal background checks are becoming a vital part of the hiring process. Many companies use the agencies to do criminal and credit background checks on prospect employees.
