Do you honestly beleive that a criminal is using a registered gun in the
first place? By the way, just a little history for you: Registered gun
oweners were the first group of Jews rounded up by the Nazis. By the time
they realized what was happening and could have fought back, most of the gun
owners were already in concentration camps.

No, by definition a criminal is exactly that. However, see the hammer argument,
and the fact that the majority of murders are committed by people who KNOW each
other. And Alcohol is often a factor...it’s harder to kill someone with a set
of chopsticks than with a gun - and you have to physically get dirty to do it.
And what, praytell did the Jews do without guns? Oh, just little things- those
who had the courage like the Stolzenkomando (? not sure of spelling) who blew up
their crematorium. I don’t think any of them had guns...at least not “legal”
ones. The first decision was to resist, and that is where those gun owners did
not do so. It was left to much later in the war before the realization of what
was ongoing became apparent. But they still had to wait for a army to liberate
them- if they had had a different prospective, perhaps things would have been
different, but it was really the first time industrial genocide had been
committed.

The greatest threat to freedom is not from the occasional random crazy
individual (which one is never going to stop anyway) as you seem to think,
but from those that make and enforce the so called “laws.” I don’t trust a
police officer to have a gun anymore than I trust your average person off the
street. If I have one too, then at least we are on equal terms. As far as an
F-16 dropping a cluster bomb on my house, well if several million people
didn’t start shooting politicians for that, I would be very surprised.
That’s why they won’t do that.

I’m glad to see you have a unhealthy dose of paranoia. If you don’t like the
“so called laws” of society, then move out. Go live in some nice place like
Chechnia with your gun collection, and let us know how long you live. I doubt
it will be very long on your own, because those “so called laws” are what is
protecting you here.
