States take unprecedented steps to curb Second Amendment rights

The left's assault on ammunition

This was forwarded to me very recently. It runs a bit over 9 minutes but has some very interesting issues regarding some states effort to use other methods to impact your 2nd Amendment Rights. The 'use it as a club" remark reflects on the Left's continued ignorance of what the 2nd Amendment stands for.

I know the Poll is a bit skewed but the whole topic is bordering on the ridiculous. They cannot win the Gun Control Battle so they are now trying to blindside gun owners - It makes me sick! Watch who is involved in supporting this issue and be sure and vote them out if they are in your state!

You know, while driving home from Tulsa this afternoon with my mind wandering as it usually does, I had a thought ... if some people are so intent on having some sort of registration database, how about creating a national database of people who are ineligible to own or purchase guns (and ammunition)? If then used with an "NF" code on all forms of government issued identification (since the feds have been mandating the requirements for state ID's for a while now anyway) so that those making private sales (or for that matter dealer sales) would then need only glance at the buyer's ID, no telephone call required. To allay fears of false identification perhaps even tie it to a publicly accessible online database keyed to the government ID numbers?

Eh. Probably already been thought of and dissed as too much of an infringement on people's rights to privacy.

There already is a form of this system in place. It's called the Interstate Identification Index. (AKA Triple I) This is a federal database. If an officer checks a person through triple I and the person is a convicted felon, anywhere is the US, there will be a record of his criminal convictions.

Then perhaps a good start then would be making that publicly available, even just the identifying information without the details, then just add any other necessary disqualifiers such as mental treatment(?) etc. The real key to making such a system work, though, would be the "no firearms" code/mark/whatever on any/all government issued identification.

Because you're trying to look at it logically, you missed the point entirely. THEY don't want ANYONE having firearms! so to have a system in place that might actually work to minimize violence, is noncondusive to THEIR goal .

Don't give THEM an inch , it's not all THEY want. what do I get for my inch?

Only reason I selected "background check for ammo" is pretty simple. Something will change, eventually, and it could be much worse than just a background check. If they instilled a system where you have to apply for a card of sorts to be eligible to buy guns and ammo, but leave everything else alone I would be happy. Sure, it would suck to have to go and take some class and test and what not, but it would suck much more to continue to only be able to buy 1 box of ammo at a time, or not even be allowed to own particular guns. If it would keep the gun Nazi's at bay, and help keep more people safe, I say sure, where do I take the class at.
