The Regime's New "Gun Clothes"

Recall the tale of the King's New Garments.

Grim plays the part of the young'un who noticed the naked:

The newly-announced "Office of Gun Violence Prevention," which will be led by several big names in Gun Control organizations, is manifestly a conspiracy to deprive Americans of Second Amendment rights under color of law. That is a violation of Federal law. ...

Not that anyone in the Regime gives a flying damn about "law."

And then it gets worse--and Grim noticed again.

...Under the recently proposed “Definition of ‘Engaged in the Business’ as a Dealer in Firearms,” any person who sells a gun for profit to anyone else, including family members, would be considered “engaged in the business” of dealing in firearms. As a result, a person would be required under federal law to obtain a federal permit, conduct a background check, and complete gun registration paperwork....

But forcing someone to acquire an FFL license is NOT the point of the new regulation.  Nope. 

 

...The real issue is that this would require all firearms transactions to be reported to the Federal Government, which would then be able to build a registration/confiscation database. The FBI would also be required to approve or reject anyone who wanted to purchase or trade for a firearm. ...

To some extent, the Regime's proposal is window-dressing.  If a gun owner decides to sell one of his guns to one of his children without notifying BATF/E of the transaction, how will BATF/E know?  

Correct:  only if one of the parties blabs.  And in 99%+ of the cases, there will be no "blabbers."

That said, we know the intent of the Regime.  It's the reason for the Second Amendment in the first damned place.
