I would refer you back to my earler post.LaUser wrote:Already have, sort of. Forum 4473. These forms are given the same status as a tax return under the Privacy Act of 1974 and cannot be disclosed to private parties or government officials without a proper warrant. Dealers are required to maintain completed forms for 20 years in the case of completed sales and 5 years where the sale was denied by the NCIS check coming back disapproved or other disqualifying information.
Caveat: Rarely has the government failed to get a warrant or subpoena when it wants one.
To those who say they would register their guns, I appalud your honesty. But I must ask, when will we as a community stand up and say, THIS far, NO more?
When they pass a new assault weapons ban that makes your Ruger 10/22 illegal?
When they say we must register all weapons, so they can get an accurate accounting of privately owned firearms?
When they pass an armory bill, that forces us to keep our guns in federally approved storage facilities (for the childern)?
When they say we must have a reason to check our private property out from the federally approved armory, and have a reason THEY agree with (that does not include self defense)?
When they start house to house searches to make sure we are not keeping any weapons or excessive amounts of ammunition in our homes?
When they seize the weapons in the armories because we cannot be trusted?
The party in power has already demonstrated a distain for the 1st, 2nd, and 10th ammendments. When the 4th and 5th go, and the military strength police force the community organizer has stated a preference for comes down YOUR street, will we then stand up and say THIS FAR, NO MORE?
No, because it will be too late.
We must make it clear to our elected leaders NOW, that we will not stand for anymore erosion of our rights as Americans, and if they will not support that, then they will pay a heavy price at the ballot box.
And that, I believe is the real meaning of the tea party movement, to say that WE THE PEOPLE are the basis of American Democracy, and the government exists to serve US, not the other way around.
If you're tired of a President who says he will defend to the death your right to agree with him. STAND UP.
If you're tired of af a congress (Both Republicans and Democrats) who belive that the productive members of a society should be taxed out of existence to buy votes of the unproductive, STAND UP.
If you're tired of a media that is constantly portraying YOU has the enemy of peace and freedom, STAND UP.
IF you're tired of culture that ridicules everything you've supported and believed in your entire life, that seeks to re-define the societal norms and Judeo-Christian values that define western civilization, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, AND SAKE OF OUR FUTURE, STAND UP.
THS FAR, NO MORE
