This is the latest attempt, IMHO, by the anti 2Aers, led by Bloomberg and supported by POTUS, to try another "reasonable sounding" approach to start confiscation.
Initially they tried "universal background checks" and still continue to bring them up, but people are wise now to the fact that UBC is just a path to registration of all firearms (because how will government KNOW a background check is done on every sale, if they don't know that the sale actually took place. And to know that a sale took place, you need to know who owned the firearm at he start of the sale. )
At present, for your constitutionally protected RKBA to be taken away, you need to be a CONVCTED FELON, who has had due process, protected by US law.
Taking away RKBA from someone on the "terrorism" watch list or ANY kind of scarily named list seems like a "reasonable" approach.
However, it is a HUGE change in the status quo, because if passed, it will allow the constitutionally protected RKBA to be taken away from someone simply if they were named by a bureaucrat, without the due processes afforded to a convicted felon.
Once such an act is made legal and precedent is set, all sorts of lists could be created with scary names: "mentally dangerous and threat to others" list, or ""dissenter and inciter" list. All of these could be used to take away RKBA. Along with UBC, this is another prong in the anti-RKBA-ers approach to disarm the USA.
The only thing that stops bad people with weapons is good people with weapons.
