White House adviser Valerie Jarrett says the president has asked his team to complete a proposal and submit it for his review "in short order." She says the recommendations will include measures to expand background checks.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Well, of course, if they expanded background checks for fertilizer purchases, it would harm the major product of the Washington D.C. area.

The checks will be performed by the DHS agents that vetted the San Bernardino wife.

Government is highly incompetent, and there are plenty of DEADLY examples which are current.

In her case, they couldn't profile for the facts:  she is muslim, came from Pakistan, wore a Burka, etc?
