The criminals. especially the street criminals and dope dealers that the police fear. obtain their weapons illegally in the first place. Many fully automatic assaulttype weapons used in crime are smuggled in from Central America with the dope. We have been unable to prevent millions of illegal aliens and tons of illegal narcotics from entering our country each year. How would a new law which punishes honest people for the crimes of others do anything but set up a more vigorous black market in guns. and further enrich the underworld kingpins in our country. It is particularly ironic that convicted felons would not be affected by the registration scheme set forth in this bill.
