Should we treat gun any kind of guns -handguns or rifles or shotguns with an ID like we do it like car inspection?
Every year or two, the owner of the gun must bring in their guns for safety inspection and make sure they still own the gun without selling it illegally?
That way, we should kind of control the flow of the guns in market.
2nd of all, currently all the handguns owner must go through a basic gun training. Why not we must enforced everyone that like to own a gun(any type) to go through gun training, gun safety, gun maintainance?
dont tell me, let me guess, you dont own a gun and think the second amendment should be changed. or infringed? what about the stolen guns? how do you check on those? you know the ones the CRIMINALS have? how do you get those from the gang bangers? they cant so far.

Either you are out of your mind, or quite young. There is something called the 2nd Ammendment, which says "The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed".
The last thing this country needs is to give MORE control to the US Government. The right to keep and bear arms is meant for several reasons. One of those reasons is to keep our own Government in check. The next several reasons are to Protect ourselves and family, to protect our nation from all enemies, foreign and domestic (that means enemies already on US soil), for hunting and general enjoyment.
If you have a problem with Americans owning firearms, ANY kind of firearms, maybe you are the problem, and need to move to a nation where you feel safer. Say Great Britain for instance.

Not sure what country you come from, but you don't have to go through any basic gun training in order to own a hand gun, where I come from.
I'll go one step further and say we got us a troll. Not even an anti gun type would make such a statement.

ps a bit of stats for you.
of the 22,000 homocides committed per year 40% are from puncture wounds.
911 was done entirely with box cutters no firearms.
when the good guys have guns it makes the job of the bad guys much much more difficult.
when did car registration, drivers ed or smog testing keep a drunk driver off the road or from killing someone? when did registration keep a car from being stolen,many stolen cars are never recovered, but are used again else where. how many of you non-gun owners drive while distracted. talking on a cell,speeding,etc. registration has made us safer from automotive deaths and injuries? owning and driving is a privalidge, not a right protected by law. there is a difference between honest gun owners and criminals. please leave me alone.
IMO, I dont' think the poster was against ownership of guns I am a gun owner and I believe in the right to bear arms, especially with all these sicko/idiots who have them. With that being said, there are some who purchase guns, legally, however they don't and have never had proper gun training (i.e. those parents whose children get ahold of the guns and there's an accidental shooting). It should be mandatory that a safety course be required, if nothing else, to ensure that the individual is familiar with gun safety (especially if they live in a home with children). No it's not 100% full proof that he/she will be a responsible gun owner but neither is anything else 100% full proof.
On the other hand, requiring gun owners to bring their weapons in for safety check to ensure that they are not selling them illegally, can also prove to ward out those individuals who may quite honestly be purchasing guns and then selling them on the streets. Will this stop it 100% - no, but it sure might weed out a good percentage of the bad apples. What abouts those gun owners who have several guns at home, but one has been stolen by a teenager or a friend - he/she doesn't realize it's missing because he/she doesn't do a regular inventory of his weapons. Having to bring them in may just save a life?
I don't know, I don't think there is any full-proof way to stop the madness and I definitely want to be allowed the right to bear arms, but if the requirement was imposed, I wouldn't be affected because I have nothing to worry about - all my weapons are accounted for
self defense is a right,driving a car is a privilage.There is a distinct difference between a right and a privilage.A privilage can be revoked at whim.A license makes it a privilage.
Licenses can be used to make increase on fees,define conditions,all that is a roundabout way to ban,by making criteria hard or impossible to afford or meet requirments.Most people are not out to ban cars,but there is a segment of the population who would ban firearms and this would be their easy ticket to doing so.They didn't just ban them out right,they just made it next to impossible to qualify...same end result.
I laugh when politicians use heart tugging BS and use the terms "reasonable" and "it's for the children".OHHH....go against any policy that's for "the children" and you are smeered into a heartless SOB.
Let me say truth about these 2 expressions "reasonable",as in really it's reasonable for use to consolidate power over citizens.
"it's for the children"...well we know it's a great political trump card,just like whipping out a race card,go against it and you look like a cold heated person and again really it's about gaining power over citizens.
the terms "reasonable" and "it's for the children" were used alot during the 90's,I see that the Dems and H Clinton are back to using the`same 'ol tactics.
Here's an idea,lets do something that's for the Constitution and liberty..........
