Lewrockwell.com: "Yes, Fellow Bubbas, They're Coming for Your Guns"

[mikem317]

Very good read.

Talks about how the anti-liberty forces will go from where we are today, to active gun confiscation, namely through a federal registry of ownership, closing that registry and all the while, demonizing gun ownership. Ostensibly, this demonization would exclude our Benevolent Overlords and their Self-Defense Rifles.

This is how we do it:

The very first thing we need is national registry. We need to know where the guns are, and who has them. Canada has a national firearms registry. We need to copy their model. We need a law demanding all firearms be registered to a national database. We need to know who has them and where they are. We need to make this as easy as possible for gun owners. The federal government provides the money and technical expertise, and the State police carry it out. Like a funded mandate. Most firearms already have a serial number on them, so it would really be a matter of taking the information already on the ATF form 4473 and putting it in a national database.

...

Along with this, make private sales illegal. When a firearm is transferred, make it law that the registration must be updated. Again, make it super easy to do. Perhaps over the internet. Dealers can log in by their FFLs and update the registration. Additionally, new guns are to be registered by the manufacturer. The object here is to create a clear paper trail from factory to distributor to dealer to owner. We want to encourage as much voluntary compliance as possible.
