If she's really serious, she'll start her search on Chicago's south side. I'd bet there are a LOT of unregistered guns there.

Yeah, we’ve seen this before.

The Weimar Republic’s well-intentioned gun registry became a tool for evil.

The perennial gun-control debate in America did not begin here. The same arguments for and against were made in the 1920s in the chaos of Germany’s Weimar Republic, which opted for gun registration. Law-abiding persons complied with the law, but the Communists and Nazis committing acts of political violence did not.

In 1931, Weimar authorities discovered plans for a Nazi takeover in which Jews would be denied food and persons refusing to surrender their guns within 24 hours would be executed. They were written by Werner Best, a future Gestapo official. In reaction to such threats, the government authorized the registration of all firearms and the confiscation thereof, if required for “public safety.” The interior minister warned that the records must not fall into the hands of any extremist group.

In 1933, the ultimate extremist group, led by Adolf Hitler, seized power and used the records to identify, disarm, and attack political opponents and Jews. Constitutional rights were suspended, and mass searches for and seizures of guns and dissident publications ensued. Police revoked gun licenses of Social Democrats and others who were not “politically reliable.” During the five years of repression that followed, society was “cleansed” by the National Socialist regime. Undesirables were placed in camps where labor made them “free,” and normal rights of citizenship were taken from Jews. The Gestapo banned independent gun clubs and arrested their leaders. Gestapo counsel Werner Best issued a directive to the police forbidding issuance of firearm permits to Jews...

One solution is to keep all your guns - stop selling privately. That is a problem in the long run because it eventually gives America’s domestic enemies ownership records for all firearms. Until we remove the evil occupying our White House (January 20, 2017!!!), we need to fight these unconstitutional orders and get court orders stopping them from going into effect. Then we need to make sure FedGov has no jurisdiction to ever again even pretend they may overreach like the drug-addled thug has just done.

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch issued what Second Amendment supporters likely see as a dark warning about the White House's looming executive order on guns, telling a group of reporters the federal government would be actively searching out those firearms' owners who want to sidestep registration.

They're not unregistered, just undocumented!
