So I was thinking about all this talk of banning guns. If they ban guns do you think that there will be an increase in knife violence? I do. I know it If you are going to kill someone you are going to do it. Murder has existed since the first family. It will always exist. It is already against the law to kill someone. So by outlawing guns you are just taking peoples rights away and leaving them defenseless to someone can simply print out a gun and kill you anyways. It is pointless. Or is there an ulterior motive?

1. Would there be an increase in knife violence if guns were banned. (note you are dumb if you think they will stop with the guns currently targeted).

2. What is that ulterior motive?

"They" won't ban all guns, not even most guns. So the question of knife violence is a completely different matter.

I certainly do not have many answers with regard to gun control ......

But I do believe that there are some steps that can be taken that might make some sense, from a big picture perspective.

For instance, effective at a certain date in the near future, all firearms must be registered. The registration must be renewed each year, and a registration tax must be paid. Additionally, all gun owners must pass a competency test, and carry specific liability insurance.

In the course of normal law enforcement, when guns are discovered, absent valid registration and proof of insurance, the individual in possession of the firearm will be charged with a crime, and the weapon in question would be confiscated.

Obtaining a firearm would become much more challenging, requiring a more in depth background check, including medical and criminal history, and a semi- annual drug and alcohol screening. (at the gun-owners' expense)

Qualifying for Concealed Carry permits would require additional proof of competency, higher levels of liability insurance, a more thorough background investigation and registration with law-enforcement.

Reasonable?

I don't think that is reasonable at all.

In your scenario since it obviously violates the second amendment.

You would want a constitutional amendment to implement this correct?

Not obvious at all.

While I am not an expert on constitutional law, I don't see how the simple registration of an object violates anyone's rights.....

Because you are saying that you have to give them your information to exercise that right. A right is something that can't be taken away. It is a pre existing natural right.

Remember we are to be free from unreasonable searches of our papers persona and affects.

If the right to bear arms can't be infringed. Then it would take a court ordered search warrant to lawfully get that information. You are proposing a law to do that. A law that is plain as day unconstitutional.

Gun registration would not take away anyone's right. . Requiring personal accountability and responsibility for ownership of a deadly weapon is simply common sense. As a proud law-abiding American I would feel that it was my patriotic duty to do what is right and register my weapons, pay my taxes and provide the appropriate liability insurance.

I suspect that many of the people who would be reluctant to registering their weapons would probably have serious "issues" that would possibly prevent them from gun ownership.

It will and it does. Only a fool or a liar would claim it doesn't.

Which is it in your case?
