Unless the penalty for being caught with an un-registered gun, or being caught with any gun - registered or not - without a License - is so frigging draconian that it scares the shit out of the average second-story man who might want to carry one....Why would you push registration when it will do absolutely nothing to stop criminals from getting and using guns.....?
There is no need to register a gun for a law abiding citizen....do you see that? If a person is caught committing a crime and is in possession of a gun at the time....go draconian on them.....if a felon is caught in the mere possession of a gun...go draconian on them........
And we can do that right now......with no registration of guns needed...at all.....
I mentioned in another post about 3 guys who shot up a chicago park....2 of them had just gotten out of jail on weapons charges....sentenced to 3 years, they did a "boot camp" were out in about 12 months and then shot up the park.......
Then I just posted about the guy who just shot a police officer in the face...
He was just coming out on his 3rd weapons charge...and already had a gun..
He used a revolver .357, so magazine limits would not have applied
He was a felon so he can't pass a background check...and still got the gun....
He was a felon who can't own a gun so he can't register an illegal gun and by Supreme court ruling he doesn't have to....
So again....I know you like the idea of registering people...but it is completely unnecessary... crimes are not solved by tracking guns back to their original owners.....
