This raises the bar for lawful gun ownership. It doesn't even prevent bad people from getting a gun. It doesn't stop violence from occurring. The law makes 0 attempts to prevent stealing a gun(which is a misdemeanor in CO unless it's worth over $1000), or to prevent crime. It just creates a financial barrier for those who want to legally own a gun. If you're a minority or LGBTQ, lawful gun ownership isn't just a hobby. For some of us it's literally survival. Especially with people disappearing from our streets. Maybe you don't look like an illegal immigrant. Maybe you look like someone whom the cops will always aid. If that's the case, good for you. But a lot of Americans don't have those kind of privileges. It wasn't that long ago that black men had shoot to members of the Klan.

Okay I'll buy it, how much is your monthly defense bill? Running through guns and ammo like crazy? Or do you just need to buy a single gun and a box of ammo? And like you said stealing a gun is trivial, right? Noones ever been priced out of a gun, and legal prices never affect black market prices, right?
