Gun Registration is Redundant
It's not really necessary to call for people to register their guns. Anything purchased since about 2001 is being tracked by Your Government In Action. Every purchase from a gun store, every acquisition of ammunition, every visit to a shooting range, every hunting license, every purchase of "Guns & Ammo" or the NRA's rag. It's the "Total Information Access" -- er, "Terrorist Information" something -- program.
De-funded and shut down by Congress, it's apparently still up and running within the "black" bowels of the NSA.
Congress, under the Republicans, may make it illegal to collect gun purchase information, or to keep the information more than 1 business day - but the spy shop need not pay any attention to that.
Believe me - the government already knows if you have guns.
