Anti-Gunners Downplay Gun Registry - Ammoland.com

 In an attempt to downplay the argument that through the ATF, the federal government is creating a gun registry to track gun sales, Daniel Funke, a USA Today writer, made it a point to try and protect the ATF and diminish an alert by Gun Owners of America (GOA). GOA warned gun owners that the Biden Administration would likely confiscate firearms if given a gun registry. Although the gun-grabbers like to gaslight Americans by pretending confiscation could never happen in America, logical-thinking people aren’t buying it. Gun confiscation has occurred in several countries and always leads to a loss of citizens’ rights and more government control. The disarming of citizens often leads to their demise.

In a USA Today article, our anti-gun friend Daniel Funke tried to support his claims that there is no gun registry with the following:

• ATF retains records from federally licensed firearms dealers, manufacturers, and importers that go out of business. The records include information about gun sales and transfers.
• The records are stored as digital images that can’t be searched for identifying information. The repository is essentially a giant folder full of pictures of forms.
• ATF can only access the records if a law enforcement agency asks for help tracing a gun linked to a crime.

Somehow, the gun-grabby Karen brigade over at USA Today, including Funke, who claims to be “a fact check reporter covering online misinformation,” think this debunks the claims that the government is creating a registry even after admitting in his own article that the IRS manages a database of 920,664,765 firearm purchase records. The only argument “Funke the Fact Checker” presents against the claims of a federal gun registry, is that “records are not stored in a searchable database or a format consistent with a registry.” You are supposed to believe that. The troubling thing is that the anti-gun mentality has cultivated the notion that any of this is acceptable at all. People who don’t know any better will consume any such anti-gun nonsense people like Daniel Funke feed to them.

Recently, a Montana gun shop was raided by 20 armed IRS Agents who confiscated 4473s which contained personal information from gun owners, including home addresses, social security numbers, and other sensitive data. The armed Agents occupied the gun shop for the entire day.
