Heck if the state of oregon can create a data base for weapons bought, then the ATF can also.
In the state of Oregon, for every gun purchased wether it is a long gun, or hand gun, that purchase is entered into a database and is held for 5 years. Supposedly when 5 years is up they are supposed to dump you out of the database. YA Right!
Just a little information: In Oregon there is no gunshow loophole either. Every FFl Dealer, Or private party sale, has to have NICS, and Oregon state background check done before transfer of firearm, Oregon's background check consists of a check with the Oregon State Police data base,Oregon Mental Health Data Base,and the Oregon Criminal Database, this has been the law for I think 3-4 years know, and for private party sales, the firearm has to be checked through the oregon state database to make sure the firearm is not stolen, hmm wonder how they got the serial numbers to track a stolen firearm. Serial number DATA Base that is how, contributed not only through firearm's sales, but from people who give there serial numbers to the law enforcement when they report the firearm stolen. So private party sales are traceable in the State of oregon.
So basically the FEDS and state officials know what kind of firearms people have.
There are already Data bases on the State level. I would not put it past the feds if there is already a federal database.
Do you or should we really trust the government not to have a database already?
I think most can answer that one realistically!
Since when have politicians told the truth,and
have some moral integrity?
Be ready for 2004 for Hilary to be in office, because the way Mr. Bush is going, he is going to burn just about every bridge that got him elected into office.
The questioning of weather the Assault weapons ban sunsetting will be the least of our worries if a democrat gets into office in 2004!
Data Bases you bet are in full operation, the feds just wont admit to it, because it would be illegal.
