We know they do it. Anyone want to help keep an eye out for creepy surveillance type cars circling the parking lot? Or dudes by the door pretending to play with their phone while taking pictures of everyone? I'm curious how much of a covert law enforcement and Homeland security presence we have now.

i'm pretty sure "they" have better surveillance than that...

Depends who the "they" are. Now that the big alphabet agencies have been let off the leash with no consequences every little Podunk sheriff's department, spyonyourkids.com and ministry of underwater basket weaving will want in on the unconstitutional action.

Be on the lookout for a strange looking balding japanee guy
Wanders around saying things like "heads" and "clips"
May be wearing vertx pants and a gongho t-shirt

I'm going there with an "unknown" comic bag over my head and removing my license plates...

I can see someone sitting behind the curtain checking out the facial scanner readouts.

"Oooh. Looks like this guy is in RapBack. Databases say he's had a recent divorce, cholesterol is a little too high, he said some bad things about the Clintons on a Facebook post, and he likes fat girl porn and has an uncircumcised penis. Assign him a threat level of 3b."

Who is "they"? What are you talking about?

Oh you haven't heard?

this particular story is behind a pay wall, but if you google it there are plenty of others for free.

i just assumed everyone knew already

If they asked me if I went to the gun show because my plates were scanned, I would deny everything and make it a point to let them see the ticket stub and goodies that I bought.   Deep state these a$$holes.
As said before I just went to visit my Aunty Rose Makuakane who lives somewhere on Kinau St. but no mo parking so I park at NBC.   

Don't know why they would have to scan plates...we already are in a registration data base.  It would make more sense for states that don't have firearm registration.

Or is it a joke played to the noob agents.  Like telling a PFC that we need an exhaust sample from the HMMWV, so take a trash bag and collect the exhaust fumes.  Then tie it and label the back with a serial number.

Tell them you were parking to go to the raw vegan restaurant across the street.

Think we're going about this in the wrong way.
"They"  already knows who owns Legal) firearms here in Hawaii.

   Was I at the Gun Show ?
Yes, along with the THOUSANDS of other 2nd Amendment, hunting, pro-gun voters.   

Heck, having a "Pro-Gun/2A " demonstration /petition signing would be a good idea if not too late !


Let's be "Loud and Proud" !

License plate scanning at the gun show is the least of my worries.   They could do the same at a gun show or range.  Scan facebook or this forum.

Double edged sword, many gun owners stay hidden to prevent theft, opposing views from friends, etc.  But it also hurts the general community where people don't see it and aren't accustomed to it which can further antigun attitude.

Or like telling a 1st year apprentice to get a steam bucket from the toolroom.

"Dumb" isn't a factor in government decisions about how to waste spend taxpayer dollars. For example, consider the untold millions of dollars spent thus far providing Secret Service protection to Jimmy Carter for the past 36 years since he left office. What could be dumber than that?
