Everyone knows criminals don't follow laws.  Adding another will never work.

Well, I don't think that it's that simple.  For instance the MMM's main goal is

The thing I most object to that is advocated by gun control enthusiasts is
registration.  I wouldn't mind nearly so much if I had to pass some test or
review to acquire weapons and that would give me a card which was good for
weapons purchases for some time period.  I would still complain, but at least
the government, who I openly do not trust, wouldn't be keeping a list and
checking it twice.
