A recent example is that murderous psycho in Lewiston, Maine. He had failed a Form 4473 application shortly before his shooting spree because he admitted that he’d been involuntarily hospitalized for mental illness. Apparently law enforcement did nothing.
He didn't break any law. If he had lied about his mental illness on the form they could have done something. Not they would have anyway but still...can't arrest a guy for telling the truth on a form.
