The Department of Homeland Security is attempting to backdoor gun registration in the State of Missouri.
According to talk show host Dana Loesch:
"Department of Revenue is working with the Department of Homeland Security to install new hard and software to obtain data on Missouri citizens and transfer this information to DHS and unnamed third parties, says Kinder. Kinder and the Stoddard County Prosecutor today took legal action and held a press conference outlining the infringement on civil liberties as posted by the DoR and DHS. The move by the departments is related to the Real ID.
Griffin went to renew his driver's license and was disturbed by how, and with whom, his information was being shared. Kinder and other lawmakers say that the move violates several Missouri state statutes. Because license offices process CCW endorsements, some claim that this is de facto gun registration."

Thank you for posting it. This is an outrage
Given the orientation of the DHS, which evidently considers Americans more of a danger than international terrorists, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if: 1. This were being considered as a prelude to state-wide seizures or privately-owned firearms; and, 2. This is simply a model for the rest of the nation.
If/when President Hussein finds some pretext, however shakey, upon which to declare martial law and nullify the constitution, conservatives can immediately look for the STHF.
I would suggest keeping a sharp eye out for “lists”. Government in general has a real love of “lists”, and for sure everyone of us is on one. Once government has one list, that is just a start, you need one very every little notion the long nose busybodies of this world will have. Notion that is. The next one involves those with some kind of mental illness that makes them dangerous to themselves or others.
I would suggest the Second amendment makes all lists superfluous. With the proper personal protection you need fear no one. Wait a minute, that isn’t quite accurate. Government is still to be feared because the Second Amendment has been infringed so many times that the military and police now out gun the public.
The only way to ensure that government does not abuse the data it collects is to prevent it from collecting it in the first place. Data on the activities of citizens is always a honey pot for future bureaucrats and judges who just cannot help themselves when they have the power to force disclosure. After all, just look at the gross violation of privacy with cell phone location records, data that was originally collected for our “safety”.
I want to point out that one does not need to own a gun to obtain a CCW in MO. Many trainers in my area supply the firearms for practice and qualification. One must qualify on both semi-auto and revolver. I have my CCW and have not yet purchased my carry firearm. If I mess up on my purchase I will be stuck with it for a while. :)
I know its spelled DHS, but why does it sound like KGB?
That’s the American way. Swear you are not going to do something. Do it anyway, but give it a nice-sounding name. Swear that you are not doing it.
new info at the link.
updates and restraining order issued.
If you had multiple weapons you could always coordinate your weapon with the size of your purse as you head out the door.
Low volume ping list
FReepmail me to be on, or off, this list.
You’ll get tons of free advice on a good carry weapon ( worth exactly what you pay for it, I might add)
Still, my favorite is the S&W 3913 Lady Smith
9mm with a single stack mag to keep the grips slim
Neoprene grips in a light grey so it looks less like a gun
Excellent trigger, DA like a revolver, on the first pull, SA thereafter.
Easy to shoot accurately
Decocking lever that disengages the trigger and blocks the firing pin
Magazine safety, drop the mag from the gun and even if there is a round in the chamber it will not fire.
No kidding and you can throw in the TSA aka NKVD or Stasi.
