    I am no longer worried about the government trying to take away my 2nd amendment rights.
    Since they cannot/will not enforce immigration laws against approx. 11 million illegal aliens, (most of whom are just here to work); what in the world do more than 85 million, armed, law-abiding citizens have to worry about? ;)

    Well, nonsequitur, the difference is, if you have registered your arms, like a good law-abiding citizen, they know where you are and where to come to get them from you. They don't know where the 11-20 million illegal aliens are and they don't care, either, so don't feel too smug about your 2nd Amendment Rights you think you have.

    Logical conclusion: We no longer are a nation with the Rule of Law with "liberty and justice for all" citizens as has been demonstrated by our elected leaders over several decades.

    The people who are truly free in this country to break the law are those who are here illegally invading our land and those who sell guns out of trunks of cars.

    There is no "gun registration" under Federal law or in Texas law. There are a few places, Chicago, New York city, etc. that require one to register and license.

    Ladyeagle, neither of those web sites have anything to do with registration. The first is BATF guidelines along with individual states laws. The second is for when one purchases a firearm.

    Okay, well if you have weapons and have never given your name, address, and social security # out when you bought them, you can breathe easy until Martial Law kicks in.
