...I've supported the right to carry a concealed weapon with a permit and the right to use deadly force if necessary to protect one's life or the life of another.Here it comes...ready?
And I've opposed misguided efforts to sue gun manufacturers and to require law-abiding citizens to register their guns with the government.
BUT:
One of the ways to do this is to require that lost or stolen guns be reported to law enforcement...
Nothing "clever" about that at all, John, especially with the Philadelphia Illuminati trying to do an end run around "existing laws" under the guise of "home rule." If they succeed, a whole lotta people could end up still owning guns they'd rather not tell anyone about.
Besides--haven't we established that real criminals need not worry?

John M. Morganelli may or may not be a smart man, but he seems to have forgotten that cyberspace never, ever forgets. Everything he proposes has been tried before, and used against the liberties of American citizens.
His basis for this proposal:
The regulation of firearms as consumer products is consistent with the goals of the consumer-protection statutes.
The goals of consumer-protection statutes is to eliminate anything that could be hazardous to consumers. The US Consumer Products Commission has been specifially forbidden to regulate guns and ammo, exactly because they proposed banning all arms and ammo due to inherent hazards associated with their use.
When guns are bought by traffickers for illegal resale, such action is deceptive and engaged in to evade the law.
When these same guns are used in a crime, and traced to their last owner (the gun trafficker), who now claims that his gun was lost or stolen, there is more deception.
Replace the pejorative phrase "gun-trafficker" with the most common gun tranferror "family member" and you will see where this regulation is really aimed. I've given a handgun to each of my three children. I'm the last owner in the paper trail. If one of those guns is stolen, this guy will come after me for violating his regulations.
Like straightarrow says, why would I want to submit to a trial?
