    I believe that the purposes of "Firearms Management" to be quite
    easily understood. First, the purpose of "Firearms Management" is to
    disarm all law abiding people. This in turn provides a relatively
    risk-free work environment for the professional criminal.
    
    If there were NO crime, we wouldn't need all of the government
    apparatus such as police, courts, judges, lawyers. Disarming the
    honest and putting the criminal in the revolving door provides steady
    employment for all those who work as part of that apparatus.
    
    There is no doubt that the "Crime Issue" can be solved. Look at the
    success of Moslem countries, such as Saudi Arabia. Also look at
    Singapore. In both cases there is relatively little violent crime.
    Punishment is real, and provides a real deterent to the criminal.
    
    I'm sure that our government will finally get around to solving "Our"
    crime problem, After the average citizen has been disarmed. Then
    those in power will simply dispose of US, along with the "Other"
    criminals. In the meantime, the criminal element will be used to
    "Justify" any number of abuses of the law abiding.
