Has to be right to near arms.
When l was in Taiwan, l thought it a bit weird that only the police could have firearms.

I agree.

As a matter of practicality, the right to self defense is what allows us to exercise our other rights.

Firearm registration is a violation of property rights?

reply

Yes, Who the hell are they to require that of someone?

I think a lot of firearms arent registered.
Grandfathered into the system.

There are also just a ton of black market guns.

Isnt everything that isnt registered to the state considered black market? Lol

reply

Only in states that require registration. In civilized states, that don't require registration, those guns are no more "black market" than your unregistered tomatoes.

Technically, many "black market" guns are "grey market" guns. Agorists make a distinction between items prohibited by the state (black market) and items the state issues licenses for. Doing otherwise legal things without complying with licensing requirements is considered "grey market" activity.

You might argue semantics, but you know what l say is true.

Usually, black market is the market in goods that would otherwise be bearing a heavy tax.
An example would have been salt in India and tobacco around the world.
(BTW, nicotine kills all [as in every] virus known to exist. Maybe this is why they tax and discourage the use of nicotine products like tobacco, tomatoes and eggplants.)

unregistered firearms are "black market", deserve punishment for dishonor.

arms are just on the market, not the "white" one, the real market

Maybe, free market?

There are also the “self-made” variety, with no serial numbers.
They come in a wide variety.

The ones with the guns to your head?
Funny what one will do when you are over the barrel.
Well, actually, tragic.

Arms don't need registration

That is why the people calling for “mandatory buybacks” are trying to disarm us.
Just look at what happened to the rest of the Anglosphere.
Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Great Britain have all been disarmed.
That worked well for them, didn’t it?

Fun fact:
Arms and firearms are two different things in law.

Men can have arms.

Slaves need a license to have a firearm.
