continued [rom page 12 the United States. Owners of legal rifles, those who have te date followed ail the proper legal procedures in obtaining their rifles, are, according to these groups, now faced with the very real possibiity that tliey may lose their possessions with out re- compensation [rom the govemnment. Many of tdhe members of such clubs and other gun owners feel that this is in fact a cash grab by the government, hiding their actions under the guise of fighting violent crime. According to the Li beral proposai, owning an unregistered gun could result in a one year prison sentence. If the gun you own happens to be on the restricted list, the penalty increases up to 4 years. Many legitimate gun owners fear that the registration process is unfair, and infringes on their rights. Many believe that a gun that may net be on the restricted list Ibis year, may next year end up upon it. This would allow the govemnment to slowly over time reduce the ameunt and types of guns that people are allowed te own. The fact that gun ewners will receive no compensation [rom the gevernment for turning in their guns is to many very disturbing. For some who have paid over $2000 or more for their rifles, this is a large financial loss. To the large number of farmers, many of which have guns on hand te take care of predators or deslroy badly wounded animals, they may fînd themselves deprived of what to many mnay have been treasured family heirlooms, passed down from generation te generation. The Reform Party stressed that laws are'already in existence which would help to punish the criminals who are using guns in criminal acts. However, according to Jack Ramsay, these laws and punishments are often the first things plea-bargained away hy the courts. Ail this new law would do, according te them, is te make crimînals out of otherwise law abiding cluizens.
