According to a January 20 [[USA Today]] article, "in what was called a “makeshift reorganization” [[FBI]] employees tasked with reviewing [[NICS]] appeals have been “temporarily” reassigned to assist with the considerable increase in background checks. According to the article, this has created a backlog of 7,100 denial appeals. Suspending the NICS denial appeal process takes on an even more sinister character when one contemplates the chief gun control measure advocated by the [[Obama administration]]. Under a “universal” background check scheme, individuals would be unable to lawfully obtain firearms without subjecting themselves to a NICS check. If such legislation was currently in force, an individual who found themselves erroneously flagged by NICS, no matter how law-abiding, would have no avenue to legally acquire a firearm and no means to challenge their incorrect NICS status, obliterating their ability to exercise their [[unalienable rights|rights]] in perpetuity, short of judicial intervention. Being flagged by a background check is not uncommon, it happened nearly 91,000 times in 2014. And it isn’t even dispositive of the fact that you can’t buy a firearm.

* "If you support UBC, you need to wake up and see the facts of what it REALLY means.

It is designed to designed to [[disarmament|disarm]] all of America, the good citizens who ensure [[rule of law|Rule of Law]]. These people have already accepted huge [[infringe]]ments upon their gun rights and they are done capitulating. Just like the already onerous [[NIC]] and [[ATF]] Form 4473 process, it will have no meaningful impact on violent criminal access to firearms or their propensity to use them. But it goes even deeper than this. Watch the video for other ways in which this system will no doubt lead to abuses and destruction of [[Bill of Rights|Constitution]]al liberties.
