I'll close with this.  You're never going to get any kind of consensus for a plan like this because, while you have good intentions, many, if not most, people on the anti-gun side will merely see this as the next step to removing guns from the hands of private citizens.  People like Fred scoff at this, but real world events have shown this to be the case., because, 1. they don't have to and 2. they'll never stop there anyways.

Registration and licensing have ZERO relationship to confiscation.  This is always your big closing point and it is completely meaningless.



IF PEOPLE WANT TO PASS CONFISCATION LAWS THEY WILL PASS CONFISCATION LAWS WHETHER WE HAVE REGISTRATION AND LICENSING LAWS OR NOT.  THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TWO.  ZERO.  ZIP.  NADA.




Anyone who uses potential confiscation laws as an argument against licensing and registration laws has NO argument against licensing and registration laws.  Opposing licensing and registration laws will not do ANYTHING to stop confiscation laws.  Registration and licensing laws are not required before confiscation laws can be passed.
