My objection is not whether the task of registering is a hardship, nor the $5 fee. My objection is that it is simply an over reach by an already bloated government that does nothing to alleviate any perceived problem and, IMHO, goes against the very principals upon which this country is founded. Granted, it is but one grievance among very many. And a relatively insignificant one in the grand scheme of things, but never the less it is one more bite taken out of our freedoms. A line needs to be drawn somewhere because, rest assured, the government is never going to willingly give up any ground that it gains and will continue to push for more control. For those of you who are unconcerned, at what point will you become concerned?
