How is requiring 'conservative law abiding gun owners' to register their guns a form of discrimination?

Your comment was that your are against creating such a data base, then using it to descriminate.

Yes, the key word is 'descriminate' [sic]. The reason for registering gun owners is not for discrimination purposes. So your analogy doesn't apply. And you never answered my question.



We have no way of knowing how this data base will be used as politics continue along the progressive agenda to establish more control over the private lives of conservative citizens. Your buddies here are already chortling about how it will only effect the conservative team. It's the white elephant in the congressional room.

Of course we know what it will be used for.............the legislation will define its intent.

However, even without the obvious profiled targeting of the database, we see an underlying discriminatory theme being acted out. The premise here is that this gun control movement would treat every law abiding citizen equal, however, the requirement for equal treatment of all comes up lacking as the target of the registration laws is increasingly those conservatives who are considered adversaries of the progressive movement (as Obama put it, who love their guns and religion).


What profiling.......there is no profiling. The only requirement is if you own a gun.
