The Firearms Statistics That Gun Control Advocates Don’t Want to See

Why do you need a database of the law abiding citizen who own gun?

I would guess for the same reason one would need a dbase of law abiding citizens who own cars.

For computer program to run there needs a database.

I would not even go into cost and complexity about having such a software.

Do you get paranoid when you see president surrounded by guards? Do you get paranoid when you see senator and mayor guarded by armed guards?

well of course you wouldn't, you're thinking of hiring a cop to sit around the office and punch in names manually..

nra talking points do not work on me, nor do their scare tactics. look at the odds of a live shooter at an elementary school and tell me how hiring an armed cop to police each school is cost effective.

We have databases of law abiding citizens who own a car. That doesn't mean I can't own a car. In fact, I own two. What's the issue with a database?

There is no historical example of automobile confiscation.

The same is true for guns.

i don't know ####### you're talking about. why are you so terrified of a database, containing names and eligibility to own guns?

Register to vote, but not to buy a gun. I see.

You as citizen agreed for govt to have that database.

Govt created that database so they can send you bill on yearly basis.

The same is true for guns.

Is your history limited to the US? Sounds like you went to public school.

Apply same logic u need Id to buy gun but u dont need one to vote.

Exactly. So what's the issue?

[Harsh_77 718]

The same is true for guns.

Does that mean it will never happen?

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Apply same logic u need Id to buy gun

No you don't. That is the whole issue.

I did agree to that? I think you're mistaken. I'm not that old. That database was there long before I had any say so.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Does that mean it will never happen?

Nothing is ever assured forever. There might be a giant earthquake tomorrow and America might cease to exist - gun rights and all. It's unlikely but I can't say with certitude that it will never happen. What's your point?

Don't try to pass the buck, when it comes to databases you get wood.
