Remember, before they can confiscate anything, they have to know who has it. Registration comes first. They'll make it sound easy, and free, and 'No, we don't want your guns, we just want to know who has them'. But it's ultimate purpose is for confiscation. Never register ANYTHING, or at least anything you don't mind losing, like say, a rusted out .22 single shot rifle, which is the only firearm you have.
They already know what you have, at least when it was bought through an FFL. All they have to do is pass a law requiring every FFL holder to scan & e-mail their form 4473's to the BATFE. Give them a month or their license is revoked, 99.9% will do it and they'll have a registration database. The only ones they won't know about are those bought through private party sales. Notice how closing the "gun show loophole" is being trumpeted by all the gun grabbers even though that had nothing to do with the Connecticut shooting. They've been planning this for a while, they were just waiting for an opportunity. You've gotta love all the idiots who claimed Obama wasn't after guns because he didn't go after them in his first term. Many of us knew exactly what he would do after he was reelected, except his proposals are more extreme than even I suspected. You don't take your eye off of a rattlesnake just because its not rattling.
