President Obama is taking a big step towards creating a national gun registry. Hawaii looks like it is about to provide the federal government with the list of all the gun owners in the state. Supposedly, keeping a list of gun owners’ names will enable the FBI to tell police if a gun owner ever gets arrested.
But a national gun registry isn’t necessary to do this check. The FBI isn’t the only organization that can do background checks on already existing gun owners. Hawaii already has a gun registry, and can regularly run its list of names to see if people have gotten arrested.
Some concealed carry states do that for their concealed handgun permit holders. For example, Kentucky checks its list of permit holders every month.
Hawaii is going to pay for entering the names in the new federal registry by charging gun owners a new fee. But, even if this registration reduced crime, it would hardly be just the gun owners who have registered their guns who would be the only ones who benefit. Economics would indicate that the people who benefit from this proposal should be the ones to pay for it.
If Hawaii officials really think that this will reduce crime for everyone and they aren’t just pushing this as a way to reduce gun ownership even further, they can pay for these checks out of general revenue. . . .

How Nazi of him.

Gun laws are only for honest gun owners.
We need a constitutional reset.

We are in the process right now.

Trump for President.
Trump will have a BIG mess on his hands to clean up.
Hawaii has never really been a US state anyway. It’s a place to park our warships and a place for the Haoles to spend money and be harassed by the locals.
Five states have long gun registration requirements, and eleven states have handgun registration requirements.
Sink Hawaii in the Pacific.
I like that.
Undocumented gun owner....
YES!!!!!
0bama is telling Colleges to stop doing background/Criminal checks of applicants because it’s racist.
Will 0bama do the same for Gun Sellers?
Hawaii has been corrupt from its very beginnings as a state.
In the beginning anyone could get a Hawaii birth certificate, whether they were born there or not. That was so they could boost their numbers and get more federal money. They didn’t care about the problems this could pose down the road as long as they got the fed gov’t goodies.
CGato
Hope y’all have unregistered ones!
Each step this fruitcake takes towards the erosion of the Constitution and our economy and lives brings this nation closer to a precipice. When that precipice is reached guess who is going to get shoved over it?

My favorite thing about Hawaii wanting federal money is that they have an INTERSTATE.
Pretty funny.
