U S Attorneys Must Be REAL Busy, No?

Apparently the U S Attorneys--nationally--are far too busy to bother with Federal gun-crimes.

...In fiscal year 2017, "approximately 25.6 million firearm-related background checks were processed through the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), and about 181,000 (about 1 percent) of the attempted purchases were denied because the background check revealed that the individual was prohibited from possessing a firearm under federal or state law."

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives referred about 13,000 of those firearms denials to its field divisions for investigation. U.S. Attorney's Offices (USAO) considered 50 of those 13,000 cases for prosecution, and actually prosecuted a total of twelve as of June 2018. An additional 10 cases were pending or awaiting prosecution as of June 2018, GAO said..

You won't hear anything from the "press" about this, nor from the "sensible gun control" jackwads.  This doesn't fit the agenda, which is to disarm citizens of the United States.

Good luck with that, friends.
