That's great, but don't try to make "hiding your guns" as an actual selling point to actual gun owners...Millions of them smell BS from the get-go and my local Democratic meetings laugh at this and scratch our heads at how the rest of the country can be so clueless about these issues?

If it ever gets to the point that someone "comes looking for your guns", then it's game over and we have major problems.

Don't say that's not the agenda of some of our party...It is and it makes me very sad.

I'm not sure convincing them to commit more illegal acts is a great idea. Gravitycollapse May 2013 #1

How is it illegal to hide guns that are properly permitted? Baitball Blogger May 2013 #2

If our goal is to create registries, hiding firearms from the state becomes illegal. Gravitycollapse May 2013 #3

Okay, I made a correction to my original post. Baitball Blogger May 2013 #4

A registry provides a list of who owns what firearms and where they're located. Llewlladdwr May 2013 #5

Wouldn't you agree that the government couldn't get to everyone on Day One Baitball Blogger May 2013 #7

I was just concerned about the background check. Baitball Blogger May 2013 #11

The registry has a useful peacetime purpose. Gravitycollapse May 2013 #15

That's why we need to get over their apprehension. There is a lot of benefits we are losing because Baitball Blogger May 2013 #16

Someone's got their tin foil on a little too tight. rl6214 May 2013 #22

Yes, but the point of hiding firearms is to conceal the fact that you own them. Gravitycollapse May 2013 #6

This is where the "clever" part comes in. Baitball Blogger May 2013 #9

I'm just not seeing how this is 'clever'. Llewlladdwr May 2013 #10

We are talking about the scenario that they fear the most. Baitball Blogger May 2013 #13

Well, it appears her fears are correct, if you and others think a registry is a good idea. Honeycombe8 May 2013 #25

Yeah, how could a registry be a bad idea? Gravitycollapse May 2013 #26

I'm not expressing opinion @ registry. Just sayin' that their supposed wacky fears are well founded, Honeycombe8 May 2013 #31

You are going to compare guns to persecuted jews? Gravitycollapse May 2013 #32

Yes. You're not listening because you don't want to. Honeycombe8 May 2013 #33

Clearly you haven't given it any thought. That much is obvious. Gravitycollapse May 2013 #34

Wonderful, however.... TnDem May 2013 #20

I don't get the impression we heard the entire testimony. Baitball Blogger May 2013 #23

OK then... TnDem May 2013 #24

But this did not address her concerns Yo_Mama May 2013 #21

If guns were registered, I've heard so-called law-abiding gungeoneers say their boat capsized with Hoyt May 2013 #27

They are law abiding mwrguy May 2013 #28
