I Built This AK-47. It's Legal and Totally Untraceable.

they are hell bent on arming as many as possible, and it ain't about gov't and defense of, 
Article Photoit's about drawing down the numbers of progressive voters by those who are stupid enough to fall on the sword for agroup of people who will probably shoot him, for fear uif he was stupid enough to do it he/she is stupid enough to talk about it.
The wooden and steel parts I need to build my untraceable AK-47 fit within a slender, 15-by-12-inch cardboard box. I first lay eyes on them one Saturday morning in the garage of an eggshell-white industrial complex near Los Angeles. Foldout tables ring the edges of the room, surrounding two orange shop presses. The walls, dusty and stained, are lined with shelves of tools. I'm with a dozen other guys, some sipping coffee, others making introductions over the buzz of an air compressor. Most of us are strangers, but we share a common bond: We are just eight hours away from having our very own AK-47—one the government will never know about.
The AK-47, perhaps the world's best-known gun, is so easy to make and so hard to break that the Soviet-designed original has spawned countless variants, updated and modified versions churned out by factories all over the globe. Although US customs laws ban importing the weapons, parts kits—which include most original components of a Kalashnikov variant—are legal. So is reassembling them, as long as no more than 10 foreign-made components are used and they are mounted on a new receiver, the box-shaped central frame that holds the gun's key mechanics. There are no fussy irritations like, say, passing a background check to buy a kit. And because we're assembling the guns for our own "personal use," whatever that may entail, we're not required to stamp in serial numbers. These rifles are totally untraceable, and even under California's stringent assault weapons ban, that's perfectly within the law.
notice the title "i built this AK47, now tell me that wasn't a jab at Pres. and his "you didn't buil;t that" saying no matter what you do we will cling to our guns, didn't Pres. say that and they denied, decried and all tongue tied, looks like in defiance they are confirming his assessment.
Among those ready to get going at this "build party" (none of whom wanted their names used) are a father-son duo getting in some bonding time and a well-bellied sixtysomething with a white Fu Manchu who "loves" the click-ack! sound of a round being chambered. Assembling a Romanian variant is a builder wearing a camo jacket and a hat embroidered with an AR-15 rifle above the legend "Come and take it." His knuckle tattoos read "PRAY HARD."
We crowd in as our three hosts, all expert gun assemblers, hand out waivers with a list of questions: Are you a convicted felon? Ever been dishonorably discharged from the military? Addicted to drugs? Mentally unstable? The guy in camo looks up and, to much laughter, says, "So it's all 'No,' right?"
isn't that tantamount too creating a gun registry?  guess it's ok if they keep a list and clinging to their unread Bibles too. their list must be to weed out those not crazy enough to be in their army, and those willing to be a Kamikaze for the cause. being played so easily is the primary tool of induction to the right wing fringe.
GW Bush, "you can fool some of the people all of the time and those are the ones you want to concentrate on".   worst than AL QAEDA and it come from down home.America but patriots, by no means.
