Actually, the Wiemar Republic required gun registration, even though they might have not had a single nefarious motive for doing so. However, Hitler inherited the registration lists when he rose to power, and the rest is history. That's the main reason to oppose gun registration ALWAYS - it's easy to say that gun registration is bad when a tyrant does it, but harder to oppose it when the Fluffy Bunny party wants to do it. But the Fluffy Bunny party won't necessarily always remain in power.

Fluffy Bunny..I like that analogy..
It recalls two things I saw, involving fluffy bunnies.
One was the movie Monty Pyton's Search for the Holy Grail
The other was an early video game, which I have forgotten the name of, which had bunnies that turned into carnivorous monsters as soon as you hit a doorway.
