You heard right, crime is scheduled to go down tonight because the new rifle
registration system kicks in.  Haha.  What a joke and waste of money.  While
i'm not opposed in principal to gun registration (i'm much more on the  NO
REG. side), i am totally sickened by the total waste of money in the
Canadian attempt.  It's like the government and civil servants can't
comprehend large numbers like one billion.  I'm quite sure that we could
have found other ways to benefit our society other then this.  People always
complain about high taxes,..well folks,..this is where YOUR hard earned
dollars are going,...as well as a few unneeded luxury jets.

I'd be interested in hearing the percentage of crimes committed with
handguns vs rifles.  My guess is that the large majority are committed with
handguns which a few people have told me have had to be registered since the
1930s.  Can anyone verify that,..or know the crime statistics?  So if we say
20% are committed with rifles (too high i think), then we paid one billion
dollars to "supposedly" stop 20% of the gun crimes.  Not too much bang for
the buck i think.  And i'm quite sure that one billion dollars is only the
beginning.  So even if you think that gun registration is good, the fact
still remains that the particular strategy choosen is not cost effective.

 I do know one thing,...if i told my boss that i needed to spend 2 Million
of his money,...and i ended up spending 1 Billion,..he'd fire my ass in a
second!!  And he'd be saying "Great project planning bonehead" as he threw
whatever hard object he could find at me.   :-)

I've got a few more thoughts on this but it's NYE and it's time to go party.
:-)  Have a good one all.
