Virginia Democrat: I Think We Should Have A Gun Registry

Sen. Barbara Favola says she doesn’t want to take away your guns. She just wants to know what you’re packing.

The Arlington Democrat is proposing to have the state study whether the registration of firearms in Virginia is feasible, because she believes arming police with a database of gun records would provide them with an additional tool to fight crime. But she knows even a study will draw opposition in Richmond

[…]

“My guess is that there will not be a single Republican who will vote for this bill,” says Sen Richard Black (R-Loudoun). “The whole purpose of [the study] is to pave the way for the confiscation of firearms from law abiding citizens,” he adds.

I think we should have an idiot politician registry.

[econjack]

I’s sure they already thought of it. See Freeandfreezing’s post.

That’s already in place, every new gun has two shells fired from it, one goes with the firearm to the new owner and the other goes to the ATF.

[Scythian_Reborn]

I’ll never register in any @#$#@#$# registry, ever

[econjack]

Oh boy...I did not know that.

She's a short person with a short-person attitude (They are always the last to know when it starts raining):

...gov’t requires a “bullet footprint” for every gun...

You do realize that Maryland had a law very similar regarding fired shell casings and decided to abandon it in 2015?

Want to see a lib head explode? Hand them a handy dandy pocket constitution and a highliter and ask them to highlight in the constitution exactly where the guaranteed right to an abortion is. Probably right there next the part where folks have to have permits to possess a firearm.

[Blue Collar White Guy]

How about an abortion registry?

Maybe background checks, and then issue a permit before putting them on the registry.

"We should have an anti-American registry!"

We already do. It's called the Democrat Party.

[ChildOfThe60s]

It’s time for one intelligent Republican (assuming there is one) to point out that the liberals do not want to disarm criminals (or catch for that matter).

Their goal is the disarming of law abiding citizens because we are who they fear - not criminals. The real threat to statists is patriots, not criminals.

[Clutch Martin]

We do register. Every time one is purchased or when applying for CCW.

ALL that does is track honest citizens.

What a jackass party tool this rep is.

[wright2bear]

She just wants to know what you’re packing. hmmmm. I will not go there....will not...will not!

"A recent survey found that one out of three liberals is just as stupid as the other two.”.

Funny!

[MasterGunner01]

No. What we need is a registry of Democrats. Know the enemy.

[exit82]

None of their G-D business.

Dear senator: I think we should have a dimwitted senator register. Are you first in line?
