Your post illustrates a complete and total lack of undestanding of the intent and purpose of the Second Amendment. > [@Callout : Layzie](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/callout-layzie/34444/11): > > I have no problem with the right to bear arms. > > I have a problem with people believing that right extends to arms far outside my definition of hunting and personal defense weapons.

Federalize photo identification, social security information, birth records, driving records, and criminal records into one common database and it becomes VERY easy to know who you shouldn’t be selling weapons to. > > ::cue ridiculous “if we do that, they’ll take our guns” argument:: --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pittspeed-politics-v-gop-dem-primaries-ron-paul/194484)._
