Dave Workman: SCOTUS ruling: Does Kagan opinion smack of gun registration?

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday that gun buyers must make it clear on their federal Form 4473 if they will keep the firearm or subsequently sell it, and a remark in the majority opinion by Justice Elena Kagan is sure to raise eyebrows among gun rights activists who worry about de facto registration.
The ruling, which may be read here, already has one well-known Second Amendment scholar and legal expert concerned about "legislating from the bench," and he is saying so. Whether the ruling sends a signal that there has been a slight philosophical shift on the high court is another matter.
UPDATE: Debate on the ruling is focused on what constitutes a “straw purchase.”

The case involves a former police officer, Bruce Abramski, Jr., who bought a pistol so he could in turn sell it to his uncle, which was done through a federally licensed firearms dealer. Both men could legally own the firearm in question, a Glock semi-auto. Abramski, of Virginia, was convicted of making a straw purchase, despite his argument that, “So long as the person at the counter is eligible to own a gun, the sale to him is legal under the statute.”
