47. Your hand is showing

"...registration is a no go with me, the govt has no right nor business knowing what firearms I own."
What, are you one of those"the govment out to get me" types? Are you a doomsday prepper going to hold off the feds from invading your compound?
You own a device that was created for the express purpose to kill. Don't argue with me about how it is used. How it might be used in a given situation and the specific reason it was created are very different. A car, if misused, could kill or hurt someone. The specific reason it was created was as a form of transportation. Lots of everyday items, if misused, could kill someone. A firearm is in a rare category of a thing created for the express purpose to kill.
Again, not how it might be used, but the reason firearms were created. Firearms were not created for home self-defense or to target shoot. The first created firearm was by the Chinese, it was called a fire lance and it was created to kill in war. The first known personal firearm was created by the Italians, it was created to kill in war.

My point is that by owning a device which has the express purpose to kill, not how it might be used, means whatever rules we impose for their distribution, ownership and use is always fair.
