Not to be a bummer, but the National Football League is a pretty horrific organization. You might not notice if you're only watching on Sundays, but if you look between the headlines, you'll find a multi-billion dollar empire built on exploitation.
Like the #MagicEye puzzles of the 90's, the underlying suffering is invisible unless seen from the right angle.

This case is complex and I am not going to get into the weeds (plus I am not a lawyer)
It revolves around the Health and Hospital Corporation (HHC), a government entity that is a nursing home juggernaut in Indiana
It has a controversial past

This bill, passed in 2021 by the House, would close background check loopholes for unlicensed sellers
It is not perfect, but would move us toward making sure every gun transaction includes a background check
