The bill will not create a national registry; in fact, it specifically makes it illegal to establish any such registry.

Right!

I trust you. After all you took an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

IIRC, the GCA 1968 made maintaining records illegal.

And of course, the .gov never breaks the law, do they?

Absolutely. Fast and Furious was totally legal...........which is why Eric Holder is hiding the administration's participation in it.

I'm pretty sure he's being as sarcastic as he can.

Likewise I am pretty sure TAM is being very sarcastic as well

Yeppers. anygunanywhere and I are on pretty much the same page. I don't think that our federal government has many more years left before it implodes completely, and the squishy wing of the GOP—which appears to me to dictate what the party will do in any moment of crisis—is as responsible for the situation as any stalinist democrat. There's nothing wrong with our system of government—as prescribed by the Constitution. In fact, I believe that our system is perfect. But there is something vastly wrong with the failure of current government to act within the boundaries of that system, and the result is completely unsustainable without one of two things happening: A) Chinese style totalitarianism; or B) libertarian regeneration. In the end, The People will never willingly submit to the former, but they have the very bad habit of electing professional politicians who will never willingly submit to the latter. Thus, things will remain unsustainable fand it will eventually collapse in on itself. I don't think we're that many years away from that point.

IRS announced that it is free to hack everyone's email accounts and read their email without warrants (SOURCE). The IRS and DHS reserve the right to scan your Facebook posts to determine if you require further attention. On the flip side of that, there now exists technologies for private citizens (and terrorists) to encrypt secret messages in the images they post to Facebook, which require a password for the recipient to decode the messages (SOURCE). Even the administration's Kathleen Sebelius admitted the other day that the implementation of Obamacare is vastly more complicated than either congressional democrats or the administration had imagined that it would be, and that the costs were far FAR beyond what they planned for......and this is just one of the crypto-communists' efforts to remake the nation. Obama's latest proposed budget is worse than anyone predicted, and certainly worse than he wants you to think it is (SOURCE). The general trend of government has been to ignore the issues over which it truly does have constitutional authority (immigration, for instance), and to meddle deeply into things over which it has no constitutional authority.

The public's response? NICS has processed 32 background checks per minute since Feb 2009, the first full month of Obama's first term, for a total of 70,291,049 since then (SOURCE), and this does not include states like California and others which do not use NICS. All of the ammunition importers and domestic manufacturers of the greatest industrialized nation the world has ever known cannot keep up with the demand for ammunition—particularly in "military calibers"—between government orders and the retail market (SOURCE). This is unprecedented in the entire history of the nation. Somebody is preparing for something.

I'll leave it at that.
