Now where is your proof of all the damage that will be caused by gun registry and owner licensing?
You have provided anecdotal evidence of your claims. My claim is that there is no actual evidence, i.e. empirical evidence, to support your claim that registration/licensing would have a meaningful impact on reducing gun related crimes. There is no research out there that backs you up and you have yet to provide any precisely because of this. I did not claim that there would be damages/harms with licensing or a registry. I don't follow the same slippery slope that SSF does.
