Kentucky led the pack in requests for federal background checks in November with nearly 204,000 according to this story:
In November, licensed gun dealers requested 1.53 million federal background checks for prospective gun buyers, breaking the record for the month set in 2008.
According to Federal Bureau of Investigation data, the number of such checks done on this year's Black Friday, the traditional kick-off of the holiday shopping frenzy, went from the previous high in 2008 of 97,848 to 129,166 — a whopping 32 percent increase.
Evidently some people in America still aren't convinced of this federal government's benevolent intentions.
