Yeah...no.

Having a gun registered has nothing to do with 'girlintraining's comment. The point being owning a gun, whether registered or not, automatically would label said gun owner as a killer, simply because by owning a gun they possess the ability to kill someone.

The contrast here is that simply owning a computer and having basic programming skills labels you as a hacker...which is wrong on many levels, but especially should the courts decide to search your computers for evidence of anything related to anything they deem possibly harmful to a complainant.

False flag (or black flag) describes covert military or paramilitary operations designed to deceive in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by other entities, groups or nations than those who actually planned and executed them.

Well ya if you want to believe that Wikipedia is the endall source of information...but...in today's world: "False flag terrorism" occurs when elements within a government stage a secret operation whereby government forces pretend to be a targeted enemy while attacking their own forces or people. OR The term originates with naval warfare. For centuries, ships have sailed under a flag identifying their nationality. During times of war, ships would sometimes change the national flag they flew in order to fool other vessels that they sought to attack or escape from. OR Something disguised to seem affiliated with a group OTHER THAN the one it really is affiliated with. For example, a "false flag operation" is a terrorist act committed by one group for the express purpose of discrediting another group, which is framed for it. Just sayin...

False flag for those who do not know is what the government or any organization does to distract the not-so-smart people while a more sinister plan is enacted. In short: "Look a flying saucer!" meanwhile "BANG!" something blows up.
