    Don't get me wrong. I am not saying they have the forms all organized and ready to go now (far from it) - or that they have a giant computer database with everything in it ready to go. Just saying its not a far leap technically to make it happen quickly.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    I agree it could technically be done but the time and money it would cost would be massive. Hell it would be easier to just query all the firearm forums to find out who has firearms.

    Or "they" could merely get a hold of the NRA membership list. That may just inform "them" who MIGHT have or at least had a firearm. May not be a legal maneuver but that has not bothered "them" in the past.
