President Joe Biden campaigned on universal background checks for gun purchases and such checks require a firearm registry in order to be enforceable.
The “Gun Safety” portion of Biden’s campaign website clearly states, “Biden will enact universal background check legislation.”
The website stipulates:
Biden will enact universal background check legislation, requiring a background check for all gun sales with very limited exceptions, such as gifts between close family members. This will close the so-called “gun show and online sales loophole” that the Obama-Biden Administration narrowed, but which cannot be fully closed by executive action alone.
Background checks for retail gun sales have been in place in the United States since 1993. When Biden talks about universal checks he is intimating an expansion of those checks, so as to cover private gun sales well.
In other words, every gun sale, even between lifelong neighbors or decades old co-workers, will require a background check.
Now, how can the government know that guns are not being sold on the side, apart from the background checks? The only way to know is to put a registration process in place whereby the government keeps a record of the serial number of every gun Americans currently possess, as well as the name and address of the citizen who possesses it.
To put it another way, the government has to know where every gun is at all times in order to ensure that firearms do not change hands without a background check.
The Obama Administration admitted the necessity of a gun registry as they pushed for universal background checks in the wake of the December 14, 2012, Sandy Hook Elementary School attack.

Of course your right.
So we obviously need more laws to create more criminals.
Then we can crack down on all the criminals, thereby solving the gun problem.
See it's easy when you let your brain turn to pudding.
Everyone knows what the gun problem is, but looking at statistics is racist because ... something or something.
Now don't get me wrong. I am not saying it's a racial problem.
I'm saying it's a culture problem. More often then not found in the urban areas.
We need mandatory gun safety classes in all public schools.
How is it that our elected servants without a background check can demand extensive background checks on we the people?
The next mass shooting coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

Everything is a Trojan Horse. The Democrats are fully prepared to pass this, knowing that it’s useless and then pass a firearm registry five years from now.
TIme to start hammering back...
call your congresscritters, weekly, daily if need be, and tell them to respect the 2nd AMENDMENT as written and stop the sham confiscation programs and proposals.
The ‘gun show’ loophole is a farce. I haven’t been to a gun show in years where sellers were NOT using 4473’s, just like at a gun store.
Online sales? shipping is from FFL to FFL. FFL is responsible for logging by SN all firearms in and out, and 4473’s are required for transfers to final owner.
This is a bunch of hype by the PTB to push their agenda to disarm the American People.
There is only one reason they want us to be disarmed...they are planning something that they fear will get them shot by we, the People.
This has NEVER been about anything but CONTROL.
If they need a registry, a registry they’ll enact. This has nothing to do with criminals using guns. This is all about law abiding citizens who will become felons once Biden’s gun control measures become law. We might end up with a new federal department to identify, register, tax and confiscate our firearms. I’m sure plans have already been made and the IRS, BATF, FIB and DOJ are busy correlating their next moves.
In 1976, the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police published a position paper on gun control and in it stated that a universal firearms registry was “unrealistic and administratively unworkable” and went on to say that “the registration of firearms, serializing and licensing will not act as a deterrent to violence and will not necessarily identify the person perpetrating the crime”.
Seems like law enforcement had a more realistic view on such things back in 1976 than what the political and media elites have had for the last number of years.
Just to be clear. The time for revolution is not after you register your guns. Or the day they knock on your door. Or when your notice arrives in the mail. Or when they arrest your neighbor...
The time for revolution is one minute after they pass the bill requiring registration.
Regards,
When you consider that nearly 75% of Chicongo murders are committed by black males and that the Illinois prison system is already considered overcrowded and that African Americans are the base of the democrat party, it becomes pretty clear why democrats opt to target white law abiding gun owners instead of actually addressing the problem. You will NEVER get a democrat to address the actual problem here. They were elected to ignore the actual problem.
So when the rats make semi automatics illegal, they have no way to confiscate them. If they order that the weapons be turned in, non compliance will be high. However, if someone rats you out for owning illegal weapons, you might have a problem. Or, if you use them in self defense, then you’ll be alive but in legal trouble. This completely nullifies the 2A.
Seems the plan is to start including more categories in the NFA registry. Easy.
Registration IS confiscation!
The gun control act of 1968 which gave us FFL’s did not include national registration of guns and licensing of owners.
This omission infuriated outgoing Prez Lyndon Johnson and he blazed forth in his remarks as he signed it into law (look it up).
Gun control has always been nothing less than race, class, & ideological warfare against the majority gun owning population, which is perceived as white, middle class, and conservative.
They can pass gun registration until the cows come home but it will be practically unenforceable; look at the noncompliance rates in NY, CT, NJ, WA, MA & other blue states. Those govs have yet to send out their flying monkeys to bang on doors and search private homes (based on what?).
All that’s left for them is cultural conversion: reeducate the children (”Daddy, why do you have all those nasty guns?”), encourage people to snitch on their neighbors, and generally ostracize gun owners as dangerous psychopaths (”No, you CAN’T go play at the Jones’ house! They have guns!!!”).
Coming next: Fr. Pfleger-style pickets in front of gun stores (answer: “This Is a Gun Free House!” signs left in the frontyards of liberal neighbors).
Molon Labe! GOPee RIP!
Scariest damn thing I’d ever seen at the time. That, Covid subjugation, DC lockdown installation of regime and you see why. FBI records show you have a FFL trafficked, untaxed firearm and yeah, you very well could get this.
Every single stat shows the gun problem is a made up POS just like the phony race problem we have...this is simply a Marxist gun grab. Like everything else Marxists hate, they look to bypass the Constitution to cripple the good people and destroy their lives.
We did gun registration in Canada. It was a multi-billion dollar failure that has since been repealed. Symbolism over substance. The gangbangers in the cities don’t register handguns that are already illegal.
There is a way to fight gun confiscation but nobody has the stomach for it.
I also seem to remember that Canadians in large measure, ignored said laws/rules....
