I assure you, that is not the case. Probably 97% of the people who own semi-automatic rifles are law abiding citizens who bought the guns legally and have never been in trouble with the law and probably never will. They may not trust the government, but that doesn't make you a criminal. The people who have them that I know are church going, blue collar workers with morals and values. Just because they don't want to register weapons that they bought long ago, in a legal fashion, does not make them bad. I know I certainly trust the government less now, than at any point in history. Why would I want them to know that I have something they might not approve of? If no one knows you have that type of weapon, why would I take the chance of registering it? That would be stupid. I'm just not seeing the connection between bad guys who are caught with semi-automatic rifles, leading to law abiding citizens with semi-automatic weapons registering their guns. One really has nothing to do with the other. I sincerely believe if you forced semi-automatic rifle owners to try and register their weapons, you'd only see less than half registered after 10 years. People in rural America don't want the government to know what they have or don't have. |
