Maybe Liberals Should Be Put On A List--They Endanger My Kids Also!

HOW OWNING A GUN COULD GET YOU ON A “SEX-OFFENDER REGISTRY”

This probably takes the cake as the dumbest idea a liberal has had on “curing gun violence” for the entire year.
And bear in mind this is just the start of the year.
After witnessing her city torn apart last year by thugs during the Baltimore City  riots, Baltimore Sun editor Tricia Bishop believes the best way to prevent violent crime from crazed gun owners is to put them on a national registry identical to a sex-offender registry.
You can bet the framers of the constitution never saw this  coming.
I’m less afraid of the criminals wielding guns in Baltimore, I declared as we discussed the issue, than I am by those permitted gun owners. I know how to stay out of the line of Baltimore’s illegal gunfire; I have the luxury of being white and middle class in a largely segregated city that reserves most of its shootings for poor, black neighborhoods overtaken by “the game.” The closest I typically get to the action is feeling the chest-thumping vibrations of the Foxtrot police helicopter flying overhead in pursuit of someone who might be a few streets over, but might as well be a world away. But I don’t know where the legal gun owners are or how to ensure that their children, no matter how well versed in respecting firearms, won’t one day introduce that weapon to my daughter.
And so, as President Barack Obama announced plans this week to tighten background checks for gun buyers and increase gun tracking and research, I thought, that’s all well and good, but how about adding something immediately useful: a gun owner registry available to the public online — something like those for sex offenders. I’m not equating gun owners with predatory perverts, but the model is helpful here; I want a searchable database I can consult to find out whether my kid can have a play date at your house.
She says she’s not equating gun owners with sexual predators, but she is saying people with the legal right to own a weapon should be treated just like them. Well Miss Bishop, is already proving herself a hypocrite.
Miss Bishop just don’t want to know if her kid will be safe, she wants to make sure gun owners are easily targetable (and profilable) so she and her liberal buddies have the luxury of knowing they’ve won a battle against “looney tune gun owners.”
Maybe, instead of worrying about whether her kids are safe or not she should worry about the kinds of people you hang out with if it’s such a concern. God forbid her children go to the house of a person who values liberty and freedom.
What’s your take on this?
