This is the same group that perpetually pumps out hundreds of laws designed to keep the rest of us in line. Mr. Marshall Frank's column of March 29 makes some cogent points. It's not unreasonable to expect firearms to be sold with childproof locks. I believe that it's not unreasonable to expect law-abiding citizens to complete a comprehensive safety and training program in order to prove proficiency before being allowed to purchase a firearm. I tend to disagree on the point of registering all firearms.
Registration leads to confiscation.
This is evidenced by what happened in England. An English company, by the way, owns Smith and Wesson, which recently caved in to the Clinton administration's efforts to disarm America by agreeing to invent a safety system that most scientists believe is unworkable. We seem to live in a country filled with people of dichotomy personalities. Gun rights advocates seem to be of the conservative ilk and also believe in the pro-life position. Those who want to get rid of the death penalty are more liberally bent and are pro-choice.
