When the gun registration = confiscation argument is made, one comes across as either paranoid or a fear monger.
There are 240+ million firearms in the US and they arent being confiscated and unless/until there is a complete breakdown of the system of 200+ year old checks and balances, it aint gonna happen.
Get over it!

really? one of the reasons I never registered my assault rifles in CA was that very reason. My other friends who did, had to turn them in or show proof of sale.
There's no paranoia there, I was able to give my friend my weapons, and he still has them to this day. Whereas those that registered them, they had to hand them over.
As far as Social Security is concerned, Cromp isn't talking about benefits, he's talking about IDENTIFICATION. One cannot do much business without an SSI# here in the US.
I can't tell you how many times I have to fight with people who WANT or DEMAND my SSI# as part of the form I need to fill out for my dr, insurance, college course, schools, cellphone (including disposable/prepaid AT&T), the list is growing EVERY DAY.
