is this even true?

again, for determining who to give money to (people are free not to file). those are voluntary

to what end? it seems like the purpose of all of those other registries is to know who they should take away benefit of the program from.

To determine who can and cannot concealed carry a gun.

Why does a driver and car need to go on a registry? You just said that was ok.

Why should there be any need to determine who can concealed carry? It should be inalienable right afforded to anyone, but those currently at the moment incarcerated.
I assume “anybody” includes people with 0 hours of gun training, convicted felons, children, non-residents, non-citizens and those with serious mental illnesses?

A right is a right!

Exactly. Only reasonable limitation I see is those currently incarcerated. Even those on probation should have the right.
