I'm still waiting for a reason to even have a discussion about a national firearms registry.
Still waiting.
You've pretty much stated exactly why I'm bringing it up. 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?
It seems to me to be an unconsidered reaction; something that sounds like a good idea to some, but has no useful purpose once you look at it.
Another possibility is that it really is a set up for confiscation.
And, finally, there may be a good reason - but I've never heard it.

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.
Or something they could use to save your life?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
