ATF Preparing for National Gun Registry? Agency Seeks Bid for “Massive Automated Database”
According to TheBlaze.com (http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/09/why-is-the-atf-seeking-a-massive-new-automated-database/), the ATF has put out a bid request for a massive new database to be used in ATF investigations.
Wired magazine (http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2013/04/atf-database/) points out that the system doesn’t seem to be tied to gun sales or ownership…yet
Many other specific requirements are also to be expected for a federal law enforcement agency: searching names, phone numbers, “nationwide utility data” and reverse phone searches. The data will then be collected to help out during investigations and provide “relevant information and intelligence products.” There’s no hint the database is to be used to track gun sales, which is a big part of the ATF’s job, as the bureau is prohibited by law from establishing a centralized electronic database for gun purchases.
As of right now the federal government is prohibited from establishing a centralized registry of gun owners. However, if the proposed “universal background check” law in the Senate, which will document every firearms transaction in the country, including private ones, was to pass you can start to see a scary picture of the future. Combined with this database, and a paper trail of every gun transaction in the country, registration becomes a very close next step.

Preparing for a centralized gun registry is what they are doing. They think to win that and get it . First step to being able to confiscate all the guns is to identify all the owners and exactly what weapons they have. -Tyr
