How do you feel about the registration of firearm?

That is in fact quite different. Registration of firearm is no different from
registration of a car or aircraft. Since since all three are dangerous and
kill (with the firearm designed for the sole purpose fo killing and giving no
transportation or other benefit), it is only normal that a government would
want to ensure that you are qualified to operate such a device by requiring registration.

But if a government captures your own body's information (fingerprints, DNA,
eye retina scan etc), then they "own" part of your body/identity.

So since they have my address, they "own" my house?

So you have some sort of bizarre fantasy where they could do *more*
things to you than any major government already *can*, right?

could build a perfect Life Model Decoy!"

Ahhh, those commies are trying to affect the "purity of my vital bodily
