England did something much like this. First it is a $25 per year fee. Then they raise it to $250. Then to $2,500. Then when you don't register your gun they don't arrest you for gun ownership, but for tax evasion. No second amendment protection for tax evasion.

A fair and just government - abiding by the Constitution - has no need to worry about an armed populace.
The only reason any government - local, state, or national - needs to know WHO has guns is for confiscation.
The right of the people to be armed is the ONLY reason the USA has always been free, and the 2nd Amendment makes sure all of the other amendments, as well as the Constitution, stays in place.
If people can't see the parallels between what the obama progressives are doing in terms of disarming, censorship, ablolishment of religion, abolishment of private property, and violation of personal privacy, the the idiots need to live a confiscatory life under a tyrant.
We are well on our way to that end.
The obama, reid, pelosi trifecta must be moved out of any position of power if we are to remain a free nation.
I thought at one time we would be saved by the mass outpouring of the Tea Party movement, but it appears the media and the left (as well as the establishment GOP) have neutered the TPM.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants lawmakers to require that all handguns in Illinois be registered with the state, or gun owners could face felony charges. I'm pretty sure the writer did NOT mean to say that if that if lawmakers do not require handgun registration then gun owners could face felony charges.

In Illinois when a Dem politician is up against a wall he or she reaches for gun control. So I assume one or more of the cults of the Lib/Dem regime are pressing him on some other issue dealing with what really matters in this state, money. The fat ass unionized teachers of Chicago have been in the news lately, being at loggersheads with Rahm, so I’m guessing this is addressed to his dimwitted base in an effort to roll his “allies.”

Communists fulfilling their agenda. Enslave Americans.

Ah yes, the first time the Nazi ballerina boy comes out of his little closet, [since being replaced by Reggie Love as Hussein’s favorite joy boy] it’s with a case of the post-menopausal vapors about guns in the hands of Real Americans. Yawn.

The kingpin of Chicago wants time to enslave and sell his drugs without interference. A dead criminal is not a drug buyer who dies a slow slave’s death.

“The Chicago mayor’s push for a statewide handgun registration database is sure to draw criticism from gun rights advocates ...”
Geeze - ya think?
Personal gun ownership is the only reason crime rates have not gone ballistic. Personal gun ownership and the will to use them is what scares liberal commies the most.
Any action that allows liberals to “cull the herd” and segment those of us that embrace our unalianable rights just allows them to go after us on side issues.

Imagine if someone told Thomas Jefferson that he had to have written permission from the govt. to own a firearm. Do you think he might ........ start a Revolution?

Whoever is mayor of Chicago OWNS Illinois the same way Philadelphia owns Pennsylvania (shared with Pittsburgh of course).
Corrupt bigcity politics controls largely rural states. What a shame. But that’s the way Obama and Emmanuel like it as they disparage the “bitter clingers” out in the hinterlands.

I think Michigan has handgun registration, at the time of purchase.

That's the heart of the Miller case. A federal district Court just that, the NFA (tax) was unconstitutional, in light of the 2nd amendment. The Supreme Court agreed, but only if the record showed the firearm in question to have a use for the common defense, or being in use by the military.

Time for all firearm, shooting accessory (scopes, mounts, bipods, slings, cases), and ammo manufacturers to close shop and move to a right to work, RKBA-friendly state. I would suggest TEXAS!

We must do everthing we can to clog the workings of the socialists/communists/marxists/fascists in this country...we are the Freedom Fighters for this country at this time in history. Many freedom fighters fought and died in Europe during WWII, but this is what you do when evil oppression places their jackboot on your neck.
Fight this to win it...squash them before they silence us, We the People.

Someone ask the ballerina if the criminals will register their guns also...stupid assclown that he is!
To: TexasRepublic
Emanuel and his brother, Dr Ezekiel Emanuel, he who is responsible for the formation of the “death panels” in obomacare are two evil, greedy, power-hungry pieces of filth...it is my prayer that they both join the likes of those burning in hell who thought, like Hitler, that THEY could control/slaughter others and rule the world.
Acknowledge the extent of evil in your enemy, and destroy them, before they destroy you.
