How many more amendments is the goverment willing to break or violate this is how a dictatorship begins guns are not the dam problem it is the crazy insane wacked out person holding it that is the problem. You cant fix stupid!! I have owned several guns in the past and plan on owning more in the future. People need to understand that weather you ban guns or not the criminals and such will still have these weapons and we as free americans will be at their mercy!!! I think not

Gun ownership is between governmental and the owner...period.

That's bull you might as well open your arms to burglars that will see who do or don't have guns! People that don't have guns might well post all what they have in there house on the internet because on twitter or Facebook they're putting their business if they're home or not and now they want to post on the internet who has a gun or not. That's not going to stop anything and i thought its a free country but the older i get we the people are getting more un free as the days go by!!!!

In a free country citizens should not be compelled to publically state what they own. Period.

I believe it puts households without guns at increased risk to be victims of crimes. If a burglar wanted to rob a house, they would most likely pick one without a gun. Same for other crimes.

No, it is none of my business.

If a gun owner is OBEYING THE LAW as the people who are being treated as pariah for WHAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS DONE are being treated, then it's really no one's business. It's between the State that did the licensing and the owner.

When a news outlet decides to villify an innocent group of people and link them to a massacre that no decent individual doesn't feel pain over, they've overstepped their boundries.
Why not just go Minority Report on us and break out the Precogs so we can be prosecuted for future crimes?

I can't imagine how anyone would think this is a good idea. A small subsection of the criminal population would target homes with guns, while others would burglarize the homes known not to contain firearms with lessened fear of deadly force being used against them. We'd might as well erect signs directing criminals to our unguarded valuables.

On the topic of burglars, if anyone is interested in the current methods employed by this generation of crumbsnatchers, the two most popular techniques in the Twin Cities are as follows:
To drive through residential areas in the morning, waiting for people to leave affluent homes. If they spot you pull out of your garage, they'll look to see if there's a second car inside. If not, they'll force open your rear door.
The second most common MO is another daytime operation, in which the burglars either pose as solicitors to see who is home, or they have a female pretending to be looking for someone knock on doors. Either way, the game is the same; they ring your bell to see if you're home and if not, poof... Say goodbye to your jewelry and small electronics.

The number of carry permits in Minnesota is actually 114,774. The latest numbers are at www.madfi.org/permitcount.asp

I can't imagine a criminal choosing to enter a home to steal supposed guns when chosing homes based on where conceal carry permit holders live. 1) risk of getting shot is REAL. 2) chance of finding a gun casually placed on the table or something? Almost none.

The 2nd Amendment allows for all Americans to have firearms. It is about the right of the people to overthrow a tyrannical government. It has no stipulations to the type of weapon, how many rounds it holds, what it looks like and how it fires. It is one of the most basic rights and THE right that gives power to the rest of the Constitution.

Is someone seriously proposing this? It's absolutely ridiculous. The federal government must stop its relentess intrusion into our lives. Gun ownership is a fundamental constitutional right and the only way that can change is through a constitutional amendment. Good luck with that one.

it is no ones busness.

I want to know so I can AVOID being in one!!
