There still needs to be a list tabulated of who could and who could not own firearms.

It's called the list of people who have firearms licences. Anybody on it may own a firearm, anybody not on it may not.


So your plan advocates just as much personal medical data being released without consent as any other plan.

If you don't want to release your medical information, don't apply for a firearms licence ...

Which IS NOT the same thing as the remark elsewhere in this thread, that in the US if you don't want to release your medical information, don't try to buy a firearm.

Because the disclosure of information -- to the NICS database -- happens WHETHER OR NOT you ever attempt to buy a firearm, or even dream of buying a firearm.


Keeping a list of people so crazy they can't own guns is bad.
Keeping a list of people not crazy that have guns is good.

By Jove, I think you've got it.
