There are crimes of commission and crimes of omission. If a law requires

of law-abiding citizens, then inaction is a crime. The Canadian gun laws

the crime rate in Canada to skyrocket.

So if your government ordered ALL firearms surrendered to the local
authority, would you label those who peacefully choose not to comply as
criminals, or libertarians trying to retain freedom for their country's
free citizens? What would "First Freedom" write about them?
