This is the same government who's Department of Homeland Security released a booklet detailing how gun owners, "constitutionalists" ,returning war veterans and tax protesters are "potential terrorists".
All they need to do is get their hands on a copy of the NRA member list and BAM we're all "prohibited persons" overnight.
Hell, as for keeping felons from buying guns ... I think you'd be amazed what minor crimes (and things you'd never think were crimes) are classified as felonies. I think you'd be amazed what innocent things you've done that could easily be construed into a felony.
