So you want people to pay to register their firearms? And registration always leads to confiscation... Canada just pulled that trick.

[-] MonsterHighStan@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago

Yes, if they want the privilege of owning a gun they should pay for registration as well. We do the same for cars and those are arguably actually required for a lot of people to work and live.

You can buy a car at any age, without registration or a license or insurance, you can transport it across state lines with no issues...and then drive it on private property with no restrictions. The car analogy is a terrible one

You're kidding right?

This was pretty big news there, it's a registery, ban and confiscation is happening now. NZ did the same shit. Registration and then confiscation.

This is the registration part. What I’m saying is: show me when they confiscated registered firearms from people.

Please don’t reply with nonsense that you didn’t read, or that doesn’t ACTUALLY show your “fear” happening in reality.
