You realize that you're actually insulting your own point there, right? The BtoT was make believe, you're essentially saying that 'gun registration being bad' consist of 'make believe' reasons. Which seems to be the case as the question is dodged like Surtur dodges job recruiters.
IMO, your post of the year might flop. Sorry 🙁

Your idea of something that doesnt exist and I have to prove to you is whats imaginary. So yes, as or right now, your universal registration is in fact, imaginary bridge to no where.

Agreed. I would also like to apologize for my mostly one word responses to your points as I was looking at your list through the lens of "how would this prevent gun crimes" and thus I was being a little dickish in my responses.
A very reasonable post that undermines Robs "hes just a time waster!" narrative.
Thanks, I thought i did pretty good. 🙂
As simple as I can get, government registries have never been looked up upon, even a census, people flip out.
Putting people on lists involving highly political issues, such as this one is is never a good idea.
How long before we get another loon in office that targets people on that list with the IRS.
And before you say that wont happen, think again, it already did.

Canada doesn't even have as many guns as the USA
There, now shut up
If a car is stolen, and the owner does not report it as stolen to the police, and it is used in the commission of a crime, particularly one that results in harm to property or to a person, then he can be held criminally and civilly responsible.
If someone does not know that his gun has been stolen, or does know but does not bother to report it to police, then he is not a responsible enough to own a gun.

I don't buy into the slippery-slope nonsense, sorry. "First they made us register our guns..."
We have to register to vote; we have to register as Dem, Rep, Indie or other and the right to vote appears more times in the Constitution than does the right to arms/guns. Registering your guns is no more "scary" than registering to vote. Not in really.

You gave a reason, we'd need to see the numbers in order to judge whether or not it's a valid reason.
Really? Because you have been provided the numbers that show voter fraud is virtually non-existent, and there is no legitimate reason to implement them, yet you still advocate for them.
People must register to exercise their constitutional right to vote, but not to own a gun? Talk about double-standards.

Interesting how they're ok with taxing people for exercising their 2nd amendment rights. I wonder how they'd feel about taxing other rights.
Um, it costs money to register to vote. Registering to vote requires some form of ID, be it a drivers license or state ID, those cost money. Any other stupid positions you want to push.
So tell me again why your 2nd "right to bear arms" is the magical exception?

We both know that the fees being talked about here aren't just a few dollars. but nice try.
What I said absolutely demolished the narrative you were pushing, like two fist up the ass demolished; it's why you're now Moving the Goal Post to "but it will cost more than voting!".
But to respond to that goal: So?
