FALSE according to Snopes snopes.com: George Soros - Freedom Group and the NRA
Internet Rumors About Cerberus, Freedom Group Are Patently False
Friday, October 14, 2011
Recently, an old rumor regarding Cerberus--the private equity firm that owns Freedom group, a holding company that in turn owns a number of firearms manufacturers, including Remington, Marlin, Bushmaster, and DPMS--was in some way tied to George Soros.
This rumor is completely false and baseless.
NRA has had contact with officials from Cerberus and Freedom Group for some time. The owners and investors involved are strong supporters of the Second Amendment and are avid hunters and shooters.
In reality, at no time has George Soros ever been a part of the ownership group of Freedom Group or Cerberus, and as a privately traded corporation, there is no possibility that he will be in the future.
This unsubstantiated rumor has caused a great deal of unnecessary concern for gun owners. NRA-ILA urges our members to take great care before repeating baseless rumors found on the Internet.
Be careful what you post.....if you go to Cerberus' webpage and do a bit of googling, you will find this is not the case.

To answer your question YES THEY (SOME IN THE GOVERNMENT) are trying to take your guns. That is what fast and furious was about. Remember the stories about the guns in the U.S. going to Mexico and being used by the drug cartels? Well that was our ATF being directed to tell the gun stores in AZ to sell firearms when they shouldn't. The ATF told the gun shops it's OK we are tracking the guns. That's the story the government didn't want everyone to know about, well its out. And now to make it worse a border patrol agent was killed by a firarm the the ATF had been so called tracking. I hope Eric Holder gets whats coming.
