Oops... I missed this:
"Privacy advocates said the plan appeared to be an effort to circumvent laws that restrict the government's right to collect or hold citizen information by turning to private firms to do the work."
Ah, so its OK if you pay a private firm. Cool.
Lemmee go back and look at that gun thing. Medical records. Travel history. Records of family members.
Hey! y'know, Fox could do this! Way cool!
Yes, the only way to be an unregistered gun owner is to buy with cash from one of those dealer shows or something.
Ah, no, that is the beauty of the private sector: they can buy (and sell) all you gun information... what, when, clubs, travel trips, money spent and match that to income and education.
The government can't do that, but, ummm, duh, they can ummm buy it?
Stealing guns, that works really well on the privacy end of things.
