I have to post about this.
The Tiahrt Amendment does not interfere with nor make information less accessible to "official" investigations. I just found your blog and it appears that you're fairly anti-gun. I'm not going to try and change that. But the record needs to be straight that there are two forces at work regarding the Tiahrt Amendment.
The Tiahrt Amendment was put in place to protect the personal and private information of citizens. The purpose is so that you or anybody else without official backing can't look me up and see that I own guns and then target me for whatever purpose.
Currently Mayor Bloomberg is spending millions in ads trying to overturn the Tiahrt Amendment so that he can gain access to the personal and private records of citizens without having to go through official channels. His purpose? So far it has been to push lawsuits against gun dealers in other states. Not even in NY where he is the Mayor.
Re-Posting Bloombergs ads on your blog is what he wants. He wants people not understanding the reality of things to go forth and spread the propaganda.
The BATFE and FOP both support the Tiahrt Amendment. It does not prevent official access to trace data. Please educate yourself on the facts of the issue before spreading propaganda.
Why is it that when it serves the conservative agenda, digging into people's private business is outrageous. But when ever anybody says Homeland Security we're all just supposed to drop trou for the cavity search with a smile on our faces?
It's not a right or entitlement to own a gun. NONE of you ever read the 2nd amendment before you go spoutin that crap. The guy who shot up VT legally owned a gun, but had a history of severe mental illness. Do you want to approach any of the family members of VT, Columbine or any of the other mass murder sites and explain that a person's non-existant right to own a gun in private is more important than their child's right to be alive?
