I can see where it's useful to disarm people with banned weapons so far (since owning certain types are against the law). I have a sneaking suspicion that it's extra red tape that's meant to deter people from getting a weapon, but that's probably something that can't be verified. What do you think are the main reasons for people to create such a registry, Chas?
Well as person with a disability I would love to know if my neighbors have anything that could be a hazard to my safety or to that of my family's safety.
I know I'm looking for good reasons, and this one is pretty damn good. The ONLY two things I can figure is that 1. Some people like privacy, and 2. if a smart thief finds out that you have a gun in your house, he'll either find a time to step in while you're gone and take it, or he'll have no issues hitting all the homes without weapons.
To add to that, once that thief potentially finds your registered cache of weapons, suddenly their are criminals with guns that got them via criminal means. So in this case having a registry is looking kinda dangerous, and the con just might outweigh the pro.
