I've previously commented on the repeal of Canada's long-gun registry that occurred last year. This has been a good thing. The gun control agenda crowd told their constituents the estimated cost of the registry would be less than $200m, that almost 100% of that would be recouped by the mandatory fees, and that it would reduce crime. Before its repeal, the registry cost $2.7B and didn't solve a single crime.
Read this article for the history and details of Canada's now defunct long-gun registry.
Firearms registration is where so-called "universal background checks" leads. A long pattern in history, including recent history in Britain and Australia, tells us that registration leads to confiscation. Confiscation leads to the destruction of our constitutional 2nd Amendment rights.
