It makes you wonder what the scope of background checks are in TN if there are any, or anywhere else in the country. In FL if you're Baker Acted is that in a database somewhere? Does it come up as a red flag in a background check if it is? If not, should it be? This goes for any state that has a similar Act. 

If these type shootings keep happening you'd think mental health status would be part of background checks but that can get sticky because it's a medical condition and that's protected by HIPPA and doctor/patient confidentiality and such.
