They tried it up in NY

Spent millions and never got a working database.

The SAFE Act was passed under a "message of necessity," meaning the customary waiting period to allow legislators to familiarize themselves with the bill was waived. No one voting on it had had time to read the bill. Yet several key provisions of the bill didn't take effect for a year ("assault weapon" registration, removal of grandfathering for 10+ capacity magazines), and a keystone piece of the Act -- the ammo background check -- has been suspended indefinitely.

I guess it was pretty urgent, huh?
