In Florida, the site of recent mass shootings such as at the Stoneman
Douglas High School and the Pulse nightclub, more than a year went by in
which the state approved applications without carrying out background
checks. This meant the state was unaware if there was a cause to refuse a
licence to allow somebody to carry a hidden gun -- for example, mental
illness or drug addiction.
The reason is dismayingly banal: an employee couldn't remember her login.
