well which is it... not addictive or worth killing to get? and it may not be physically addictive, but ive seen many people that not only rely on it, crave and need it to get through a day. that is all mental there, which is just as bad as physical in most cases. either way, legalizing pot wont do a damn thing to the gun related crime rate. c
Sorry if it was worded goofy, I was addressing two points.
Pot isn't addictive being one.
The other being that people will kill in order to get $$$ so they can buy their fix, being heroin, crack, etc. (not pot).
I've never known anyone on pot to go railing against the police like someone on PCP does. There are probably instances where someone got killed because a guy was robbing a house to go pawn a tv so he could buy pot. But I doubt deaths as a result of pot are very high. Where as those related to severely addictive drugs like heroin makes folks a lot more aggressive when it comes to getting $$$.
I've been in the room when the dealer I get most of guns from called. They took the serial number from the gun(s).
Plus, the dealer keeps paperwork too.

Like Nebor said, the serial numbers don't get called in, just your personal info. It's pretty much registration since the 4473 gets kept by the dealer and can be inspected by the ATF without notice.
I consider it registration since the records are kept for .gov review at any time even if not related to a search but routine inspection.
The ATF can't keep the NFA Registry maintained on computer.
