All that vast mountain of “big data” that is being accumulated about every dollar and mouse click is for a purpose. Some of it will be used for targeted marketing. Some of it will be accessed by anyone looking for criminal activities. But perhaps the scariest purpose is for “predictive analytics”, or in other words, for predicting what each of us is likely to do or not do in the future.

It would have to track the serial number. How else would you prove a background check was completed for the transfer?


Same way they do it for liquor. Send in unqualified buyers as an occasional sting.

Now, please describe the scenario when a crime is avoided or detected because a serial number was kept, and would not have been without the serial number recorded.

Please.

There isnt a case of course, that isn’t their point. Registration and eventual confiscation is their point.

They’ve gotten better recently. I think there are/were several board members who were wishy washy but they have been identified.
