The Illinois State Supreme Court found a strict assault weapons ban passed after the Highland Park shooting to be constitutional in a ruling issued Friday.

The post I’m replying to has “assault weapons” in the title. Guns, I’m talking about guns and gun laws. You’re being obtuse and you know it.
If you need an example of registration leading to confiscation look at Australia and New Zealand. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws, or their effects in those two countries, it’s a fact that confiscation would not have been as effective without a national register of gun owners.
Australia and New Zealand? You mean places that don’t have mass shootings every day but do have national healthcare? I think I will look at them. They sound like good models.
If you had actually read my reply you’d see that I was not commenting on whether Australia or New Zealand had better or worse gun laws or healthcare. It’s pretty clear that I actually went out of my way to stay away from commenting about whether I thought their laws were good or effective compared to the US. All I said was that registration made eventual confiscation more effective for them. A fact you have not disputed, so I’m glad we agree.
Believe it or not, I’m able to read between the lines.
