Probably because he qualified by the standards set. In my state the only thing that can keep you from having a license is, being a sex offender or having a felony of some kind with drugs. If you pass the other background check information, you are qualified. Unless this guy was reported before for this type of behavior and the state was aware, I am sure he might have been held up. But even then the state might never find out about this unless someone specifically reported him to the state as not having good character, and even then it might not have made a difference. It is not any different than looking for a job, unless someone knows that someone is considering you for a job, people are not going to just tell the employer that they should not hire you. You have to have something on your record or someone within the hiring process has to know who you are and what you are doing. It should not be that hard to understand. It is not like ever bad decision you do shows up on a background check.
