And the political mindset of the majority of voters in this state will never allow it to stand... And even if it happens, it'll be repealed after the next voting cycle...

I wish I didn't have to get a permission slip from the cops to buy a handgun... And I'm not even a resident of this state!!! This wretched state was forced upon me by my assignment officer... This ridiculous state with it's ridiculous "safety inspection/registration" of handguns.

Can you tell me of any crime that was prevented by using the handgun registration in Michigan? How exactly has it reduced crime? How exactly has it made anyone safer?

How exactly would you propose a legalization of suppressors, when you still have to get a permission slip from "nanny state" to buy a handgun in the first place?!?!
