1.4 million Obama amnesty applicants on deportation hit list
By Paul Bedard


Some 1.4 million illegals who followed President Obama's request to sign up
for two controversial amnesty programs could be among the first to face
deportation under the new administration.

The reason: In exchange for getting into the two programs, they handed over
their identities, home addresses, and admitted to being in the United States
illegally, making them the easiest to find and legally deport.

"I was surprised anyone would be stupid enough to sign up for DACA (Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals) and DAPA (Deferred Action for Parents of
Americans). Yet apparently hundreds of thousands of people did so anyway,"
said John Miano of the Center for Immigration Studies.

He said in a blog post that the programs are dead under a Trump
administration and those who signed up "created a list of prime candidates
for deportation with names, addresses, and an admission of illegal alien
status."

Secrets has already received reports that illegals are already starting to
leave the country. One source said that some in Virginia left for the border
on Wednesday, the day Donald Trump was declared the winner.

The agency that took the names, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services,
has on file 1,443,762 names of applicants for DACA and DAPA. They break down
this way:

â?" 1 million are from Mexico.

â?" 119,788 are from the three countries from which thousands of youths fled
in the last three years, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.

â?" Over half, 607,000 live in California and Texas.

"The dealer also records all information from the Form 4473 into a
required "bound-book" called an "Acquisition and Disposition Log. A
dealer must keep this on file at least 20 years, and is required to
surrender the log to the ATF upon retirement from the firearms

4473's are saved by the FFL until he (or she) dies or goes out of business.
The ATF may even come in and look through them once or twice per year if
necessary.

That's it? That's all you've got? There are approximately 79 thousand
FFL holders who sell 12 million new firearms and millions more used
firearms annually. Over time that amounts over 150 million FFL firearm
sales. The only place those sales are recorded are on paper (not
electronic records) stored by each FFL holder. There is no central
repository in any form containing that information. In other words,
there is no single "list" ANYWHERE of FFL sales.

Moreover, "As of July 2004, approved purchaser information must be
destroyed within 24 hours of the official NICS response to the dealer.20
This destruction requirement has been imposed in appropriations bills as
part of the so-called “Tiahrt Amendments,” named after their chief
proponent Rep. Todd Tiahrt (R-KS). As a result, ATF inspectors are no
longer able to compare the information on file with the dealer to the
information the dealer submitted to NICS."

So, if you call boxes of musty old papers spread out over 79 thousand
discrete locations a list, I suppose you can do that, but most people
would not call that a list. Good look locating any one particular
needle in that very large haystack. (Chortle)

Yes, a "bound book" - a paper record, NO electronic data base, and NO
central repository. In fact, the federal government is prohibited by
law from compiling a centralized list of those sales. Actually, there
are stacks of bound books spread out over 80,000 different privately
owned locations, with no ready means of locating any one particular sale
record.

"Q11: What happens to the data provided on Form 4473?
Completed Forms 4473 are retained by the Federal firearms licensee
(FFL). ATF does not, and never has, maintained an archive or other
information repository on the race or ethnicity of firearm purchasers or
licensees, and it has no intention to do so in the future. ATF may
inspect individual Forms 4473 containing personally identifying
information held by FFLs only for limited regulatory or law enforcement
functions-specifically, during inspections, and in the course of
investigations (for example, when tracing firearms linked to individual
criminal investigations). Similarly, the FFL may use the demographic
data to ensure proper identification or facilitate the background check
process. There are some limited circumstances – for example when an FFL
goes out of business – under which the Forms 4473 or information
contained thereon is provided to ATF as required by statute. Even under
these limited circumstances, ATF does not aggregate or centralize the
demographic information contained on the form."
https://www.atf.gov/firearms/atf-form-4473-faqs#Q11-4473

There are nearly 80,000 FFL holders who sell over 12 million guns per
year. There are only about 2,400 active ATF agents, who have better
things to do with their time than inspecting tens of millions of old FFL
sales records. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but such inspections
are necessarily infrequent and cursory.

The entire article is lengthy but the salient point is Andrew Barnhill
dropped a handgun during an armored car robbery at Ukiah, CA. Evidence
was produced that he had purchased the firearm in Missoula, MT. Other
than the 4473, there is no registration, permit, or other paperwork
required to purchase a handgun in Montana. So, how did they pull that
rabbit out of their hat?

So, if a firearm used in the commission of a crime is found in Sand
Point ID they might start looking inquiring at sporting goods stores in
Mobile AL?

They go to the manufacturer who serializes all the guns they produce. Then
they track it to the distributor who has the records of what dealer
received that gun. The dealer has the 4473 which contains the pertinent
information on who it was sold to. From that point, things could get murky
depending who how honest the buyer is and state laws.

Supposedly nothing unless it is part of an investigation into a crime.

Which, officially or not, does not stop the agent from scribbling down
the name of the purchaser.

Unless it is under the course of an investigation as you mentioned above.
Even then only the individual 4473 is to be copied or provide data on the
first purchaser.

BATFE doesn't. To repeat,
"As of July 2004, approved purchaser information must be destroyed
within 24 hours of the official NICS response to the dealer. This
destruction requirement has been imposed in appropriations bills as part
of the so-called “Tiahrt Amendments,” named after their chief proponent
Rep. Todd Tiahrt (R-KS). As a result, ATF inspectors are no longer able

Wow, you must have crystal balls, to be able to see into the future.
But suppose you're right. In the meantime, a decade from now there will
already be 600 million gun out there, most of them still won't be in
your system, and a huge part of those will have gone through private
sales where no record is kept anyway.

If I had to guess, I'd say it was something like this:
FBI has the gun, forwards the serial number to BATFE.
BATFE checks the records it receives from gun manufacturers, which
identifies the FFL dealer the manufacturer shipped the gun to and
probably when it was shipped.
BATFE (or perhaps FBI, I don't know the interagency workings) goes to
the dealer and asks to see its records from that date forward.
Dealer retrieves its bound records from storage.
Federal agent spends who knows how many hours, laboring over those
records year by year, page by page, sale by sale. Eventually the agent
finds, buried in those bound books, the entry for the sale of that gun.
Sometimes it may be worth while to search for the needle in the
haystack. But like I said, there is no ready means of locating any one
particular sales record.

The agent never sees anything that links a particular gun to a
particular purchaser. And a lot of NICS background checks are done
electronically through the NICS E-Check System, so an agent never sees
it at all.

Which may NOT be the other end of the chain. The other end of the chain
may be a dead end. There might be a series of private sales after the
original purchaser, or the gun might be stolen, etc., leaving no record
whatsoever of who is at the other end of the chain.

It most likely is as far as he can go.....unless it is a state with an
FFL requirement for further transfer....there are a couple. Then it may
be able to be traced further but most likely that is the end of the line.

The other end of the chain

Yep. Which is one reason why universal background checks won't work
without the companion of registration which may or may not be followed.

The chain I was speaking was the to the original purchaser, at which
point whatever chain there was has most likely ended.

If they are still doing it by hand, then their boses need dismissing.
Hire a bunch of data entry people and computerise the books makes is very
easy for future searching. OCR may work, but generally good data entry is
far superior.

The Feds are not supposed to keep those records and there is no reason
for the FFl holder to have the extra expense to have a computer data
base. So the legitimate method of tracing the buyer would be by going
over the logbook page by unsorted page until the right serial number
appeared. Extremely tedious.. My money is on the Feds braking the Law(As
usual) and keeping the paperwork and having it on a readily searchable
Data base. I know for a fact that when a raid on a Meth house is planned
the Feds do a search of some data base to see if Weapons are on board.
Which is usually a joke as most criminals purchase illegal weapons as
they have a previous felony or do not wish to advertise their arsenal. A
lot of weapons are purchased at pawn shops with forged identity or
stolen identity documents. Pawn shops could care less and usually make
sure the purchase is made out of sight of the Cameras.

No can do. 18 U.S. Code § 926(a):
"The Attorney General may prescribe only such rules and regulations
as are necessary to carry out the provisions of this chapter ...
No such rule or regulation prescribed after the date of the enactment
of the Firearms Owners’ Protection Act may require that records
required to be maintained under this chapter or any portion of the
contents of such records, be recorded at or transferred to a facility
owned, managed, or controlled by the United States or any State or any
political subdivision thereof, nor that any system of registration of
firearms, firearms owners, or firearms transactions or dispositions

Repeat? This is the first time I posted this federal regulations. It's
interesting that you call a first-time post a repeat.

It's also interesting that you consider a federal regulation to be BS.
The Code of Federal Regulations isn't anyone's opinion, it is the law.

Or maybe you're just that ignorant that you don't know that CFR stands
for Code of Federal Regulations and has the force of federal law.

they just pay the private sector to convert, hold, search ( and then
destroy).
