18. So your for creating a whole new class of criminals

Mon Oct 29, 2012, 09:35 AM

Oct 2012

and expanding the prison system even more, where does the money come from to house these newly created prisoners? Are they felons? Why ruin there lives?
Massive sting operations? So you want more police presence?
You really think that criminals will have any problem getting guns? They would just resort to smuggling them from across the border.
Your support of more police stings tells me all I need to know about you, I wholeheartedly reject massive LE stings, oft times, they go awry and police or innocent civilians get hurt or killed, and I speak from 30 years of experience.
No fucking thanks.
The only thing that registration will do is give govt a list of who owns what, the only people affected by registration are the law abiding citizen.
The govt has no business knowing what firearms a citizen owns.
