I'm not sure the exact existing laws, if they're already in place then I'm fine with it. Not trying to start a movement, just wanna be rational about it.

Whoa! let's not start getting rational, now. This is politics we are talking about!

Most people are vehemently against Hillery because she intends to institute a 25% tax on gun sales, and also
restrict everybody's abilities to own a gun. Many do not understand why the federal government needs a document showing gun ownership. (Registration of firearms) unless the intent is to be able to +track guns for the purposes of confiscation. I realize the narrative is so that if a crime is committed, they can more easily track a particular weapon to an individual to identify the criminal. The problem is, if somebody
is going to commit a crime, they are not going to use a registered weapon, They will steal one or buy one on the black market, etc.
