Gun registration is two fold.
First, a tax on gun ownership, because a law abiding person will pay it.
Second, so the government knows where all the law abiding citizens guns are so when they are illegal they will be easier to collect.
Nobody actually believes criminals will give up their guns nor pay the taxes.
I wonder .. Just how many Law abiding folks ever give this much thought?
BTW: Ever wonder How Many of those guns that the criminals have .. were at one time registered by lawful folks?
I guess maybe Ohio is different.
I’m sure the gvt knows I bought hand guns, but there’s not saying I didn’t sell them already.
I don’t need to tell them, and I have paid no sort of registration fee, etc.
Law-abiding citizens will turn in their guns when the law says they must regardless if they’re registered or not. Isn’t that what law-abiding means? Besides, they’re not ever going to come after guns. They’ll do away with the ammo. and supplies or make it impossible to shoot anywhere. Registration is just another tax.
