Will The Background Check Bill Create A Gun Registry?

Opponents of a bill that would require background checks for all private gun sales are worried that the law's real objective is to create a gun registry. Supporters have pointed out that the bill doesn't do anything of the sort. And, they ask, what would be so terrible about a gun registry? After all, we register voters. Where do you stand on the issue? Do you think Senate Bill 221 infringes on the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms? Or do you think it is a reasonable step to increase public safety?
