Forgive my ignorance on this issue, I'm Canadian. I just can't believe anyone in the US would agree to allow this or even try to get this to happen. You've all seen what's happened in Canada with attempts at gun control...it doesn't work. The people don't abide by it, police don't enforce it and the government doesn't know how to use it. Any further attempts to stiffen laws in Canada would be rejected by the entire populace.

Riiight! You mean like the Australians and British have rejected those attempts?

Canada, from my understanding has already outlawed a majority of weapons useful for self-defense.

HCI and the like, when they first became organized, did advocate total disarmament, they learned from their mistakes and so changed their tactics, but it is foolish to believe that they have changed their desires. There is no such thing as intelligent or reasonable controls on gun ownership where the LAW ABIDING American citizen is concerned.

The government of Canada knows exactly how to use the gun registry; they simply haven't gotten to the point of the total confiscation they had in mind when they instituted it.
