Wait a minute.  You either trust your government or you don't.
If you think the government is so untrustworthy that it will confiscate
registered handguns, what do you think it will do to you if it no
longer has to be bothered with the rights of alleged criminals?
A govenment that can't distinguish between registration and confiscation
will not understand the difference between accused and convicted,
innocent and guilty.  Please, if you cherish your right to bear arms,
including "tools" whose only purpose is to blow away human beings at
close range, you had better cherish the rest of that beautiful document
just as dearly.
