Reply #75: I consider this a false premise. [View All]

That there are some dirtbags that would confiscate all guns, and that there are some dirtbags that would leverage firearms registration to accomplish it are undoubtable. Clearly we can cite examples of people willing to do either or both.


That does not prove that registration is inherently bad, nor does it prove that a majority, or even a motivated minority exists that could accomplish either.

In addition to the guns that were confiscated in California for registering after the initial closure of the registry, in the extension period, they ALSO banned all unregistered AW's. They could have banned them all outright, registered or not. Registration is not required for the pro-ban crowd to run amok. With the nature of FFL transfers now, it's barely even necessary.
