    Things I am worried about are what if the Registry is hacked or leaked
    It could be used as a shopping list for the criminals

    Is there any catches ie are they going to start asking you to justify everything you own etc etc


    The registry it’s self is probably a good thing imo….. as long as the access to the information isn’t abused by the powers that be
    Of course there are catches and of course they will start to ask for justification for everything that you own
    And of course the registry will be abused by the powers that be, why would you think otherwise?

    It's not a shopping list for crims and I wish people would stop using this as an argument against the register. If crims knew you had a FAL they would just figure out what they want to steal once they get there, there is no selectivity to it.

    It is however a CONFISCATION list for the police/government.
    They'll start with some unusual and low volume firearms because "it only impacts a small number of people"
    Then some more
    Then some more
    And so on

    The police continue to argue that it will stop the "flow'" of firearms from licensed owners to unlicensed but again, that is only after the fact and I'd warrant you could go a long time between audits and have purchased a lot of firearms in the meantime. That's your gang initiation passed, a spell inside, a patch and a meth dealership awaits you once you are out.
    Or of course, just add a couple of crates of guns to your drug importation order.

    A clusterfuck it will be
