$2B

That’s what Canada’s gun registry cost. Since its inception:

Canada’s homicide rate and number of gang-related murders has increased since the federal government’s firearms registry and licensing program was implemented, an indication that the program has failed to improve public safety, according to Hubris in the North, The Canadian Firearms Registry, a new report from independent research organization The Fraser Institute.

Shocking. Like Tam Marko said:

When someone asks you about licensing and registration, pick up a pen and a sheet of paper. Tear the paper in half and hand half to your questioner. Say “Okay, this pen is a gun. The paper I’m holding is my license and the paper you’re holding is the registration. Using only these two pieces of paper, explain to me just how you are going to keep me from shooting someone?

    uh, Marco said. Tam quoted.

  2. Standard Mischief Says:

    Marko, that is.

  3. Standard Mischief Says:

    Now, the standard mischief is to lament how those wasted dollars could be spent solving rape cases or something. Huge backlog at the DNA testing lab.

    I’m pretty sure the DNA lab solves more crime than the gun registration database anyway. If we don’t have unlimited dollars to throw at the crime problem, doesn’t it make sense to spend those dollars that we do have wisely?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
