Gun Registration is Actually Gun Owner Registration


The following text is from legislation being proposed by Senator Dianne Feinstein as documented on her official Senate website:

"Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include: 
Background check of owner and any transferee; Type and serial number of the firearm; Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint; Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law; and Dedicated funding for ATF to implement registration."
Note the sneakiness and the dishonesty of the above paragraph. The introductory clause states that "weapons" are being registered. However, the rest body of the text reveals that the owner is being registered. This is textual proof that Feinstein's agenda is not about the actual guns or so called "gun control." The requirement to photograph and fingerprint proves that she is proposing gun owner control. 

Feinstein is laying the groundwork to control gun owners -- not guns. The left is intentionally masking their intentions through language manipulation. We are not being told about their plans to do once they have a comprehensive listing of gun owners. We can only speculate about what additional requirements will later be imposed upon registered gun owners, and what the consequences for failure to obey the law will be. (But it doesn't take a MENSA member to figure it out.)

The bottom line is that registration is not innocent or acceptable. This legislation must be completely defeated. We must beware of any "compromise" that moves away from Feinstein's proposal to make it "just" a gun registration law, because that is not what it will be -- it will be a gun owner registration law. 

The true agenda must be exposed. No form of compromise is acceptable. There are no asterisks in the Second Amendment. Complete defeat of any proposed legislation is the only acceptable outcome.

What does "Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law;" actually mean?
