[b]When asked whether NRA would use DOJ’s position to attempt to repeal existing laws she said "There are also many laws on the books that the NRA has helped implement.... For example, the National Instant Check System was the brainchild of our former chief lobbyist."
The NICS system is virtual firearms registration, regardless how many days the firearms purchase records are supposedly kept, for the computer is backed up every night.
As envisioned about 1988 by NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre, then ILA Director, and then-Federal Director Jim Baker, it was never supposed to get into a computer. But it does, and NICS has become a dangerous threat to the right to keep and bear arms – as some of us predicted.[/b]

No surprise's here. The Constitution is merely a minor inconvience nowadays...Meanwhile de-facto gun registration goes on, (NICS), and the Federal govt is hireing MASSIVE numbers of armed agents for the "War On Terror". Connect the dots....
