I agree with the idea that there are certain types of guns that are pointless to sell to civilians. The solution is simple, ban them.

While that idea is kicked around, there is still the black market to try to deal with. lets focus on people who already own guns. While there are alot of responsible gun owners, the fact remains that way to many legally obtained guns get stolen and then distributed to shady people.

The responsibility falls on the owner. Just like we have to register our vehicles every year, perhaps gun owners should have to register their fire arms every year. If they are unable to show that they still own the fire arm and it was stolen from them, then they should face huge fines.

I know, some of you might have just been enraged by what I said, gun registry blah blah blah. But if you really love having your gun and use any argument to justify having it, then suck it up princess. I value the saftey of my family over the enjoyment of you shooting at beer cans.

Unfair? Perhaps, but its gun owners responsibility to take every step to ensure that no one but they have access to that fire arm.
