[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 2456811, member: 76863"]Victims of fraud are rarely made whole again, at best they get something back in the overwhelming majority of cases. The registration changes nothing. And those professional associations you keep mentioning, they already exist. The ANA and the PMG. Buyers judge dealers on their reputation and personal experiences not their registrations. Laws aren't preventative. There are preventative law enforcement methods, there are preventative investigation techniques, but criminal laws are reactionary. You wouldn't need law enforcement if laws stopped crime. As has been beaten to death at this point and the last time I will repeat it, anyone who wants to commit felony fraud will continue to do so, a registration isn't going to stop that. Anyone with a law enforcement, legal, or academia background in criminal justice can see how flawed your premise is that someone willing to commit felony fraud will say "Oh darn Minnesota is off the table now because they have a registration law", the only people worried about registering were law abiding in the first place.[/QUOTE]
