I'm not talking about people who have been accused of anything. It just seems that part of the policy is that the government can change the classification of a firearm from restricted to prohibited or from non-restricted to restricted, and this legislation is saying that their registration will automatically cease once that happens, so, on paper, they will be in possession of an illegal firearm, and that's criminal. How can we avoid turning innocent people into paper criminals overnight?
