Registration is an invasion of privacy.

The law should only be involved with what people do with guns.

There is no express constitutional right to privacy.

Honestly no one cares about Benghazi other than some republicans, and illogically, lots of people will become accustomed to or will agree with the ACA by then. Republican thought the same thing the last election. People still voted for Obama despite of his bad record because all Republicans had to offer is insults and negativity. That has not changed. If they spend the whole time talking about what the past prez did or didn't do while still informing people how lazy, uneducated, and ungodly they are, they will lose again.

None of this matters though because as I said, it's never gonna happen. We agree on that fact.

It will be a slow process of back door bans and arbitrary laws like this one in CT that will be the undoing of gun ownership here in the states.... One step at a time. Bit by bit until eventually there is nothing left to fight for even if you wanted to.
The bolded lines here are the ones I was saying was a paranoid delusion. There isn't a big plan to take the guns.

He 100 percent represents America!
Do you listen to conservative radio, blogs, political TV talk shows, etc? A lot of Republicans hate him and Mccain. Fox, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and even standing members of his own peers hate this guy. I agree that he has a chance, but only if he gets a chance and the full support of his party. They're already talking about him as if he's dirt.

And not a single life will be saved by this violation of constitutional rights of the citizens of CT, and will make many law abiding citizens criminals with the stroke of a pen in the hands of a very stupid government.
No rights have been taken away. Period.

No guns were banned during the Clinton registration and even more in the previous 2013 bill that were to be banned?

The most popular, most owned, and most purchased firearms weren't going to become illegal to manufacture as an attempt in, dianne feinstein's own words, to drive up prices and decrease supply? AKA A back door way of making a firearm no longer available to the public AKA the same effect as a ban?

If I say, I'm not banning cars, but I'm going to ban adjustable seats, cars that can go over 70 mph, cars with racing tires, cars that look fast (such as in having spoilers), cars with V8 engines, would that not in effect take away millions of peoples cars without actually coming right out and specifically banning their cars?

Selective Service registration = Draft cannon fodder.

Gun registration = gun confiscation when the Stinkocrats get the chance.

That's fine. They can restrict different types of guns, and people who own those guns will have to have them confiscated. Again, that is not unconstitutional.
The constitution guarantees the right to have a gun, that's it. If new technology has created all sorts of different types of guns, those are not guaranteed under the constitution.
