Kind of like a handicapped sign.

Do you think that you should have to prove to the government that you NEED a knife when you buy it? And have to PAY for the PRIVILEGE of owning said knife?
What about a baseball bat? I bet there are more baseball bats used during crimes in Alberta than bullet proof vests. Should we have to show that we are a part of a softball team and then PAY the government for the privilege?

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship.
