Firearms. Who or what is dangerous?

So making assault weapons illegal will take them of the street? We should make heroine and meth illegal too.

Are you suggesting that guns are addictive? and that once a person starts using one they become chemically dependent on it and trapped in a circle of violence and addiction as the gun takes over their life?

Are there then people out there that will steal if they can't get hold of a bullets? That will go without food to get their bullets? That will neglect themselves, prostitute themselves if they can't get bullets?

If guns are like meth and heroine then the problem is more serious that we thought.

he was making the point that just because you make something illegal doesn't

mean that you can get it out of the hand of the people or stop people using

or doing them.

Wow. What a concept!

I think that a simple concept like taking personal responsibility

for your actions and their consequences, good or bad would be hard too. LOL :)

irony?

No, he/she thought it was a stupid equivalency.

this is dancers room mateo

about 95% of "gun crimes" are performed with a gun that has been obtained illegally. therefore, gun crimes won't really decrease by not allowing law abiding citizens to carry guns.
It's just like drugs. Ya just abuse them and obtain them illegally

I think if Dancer's roommate is going to post so much, Dancer's roommate should get a separate computer working for SETI@Home so that Dancer's roommate will have his or her own account.

I'll explain this again.
You cannot equate drug prohibition with gun prohibition because guns are not addictive.
The reason it is so easy to get hold of illegal guns is because there are so many legal ones in circulation and no proper monitoring of where they end up.

Interesting opinions blog in the Wahington Post.
Stop the gun madness

“Normal,” however, is tragically unacceptable. In 2010, guns took the lives of 31,076 Americans. Most of the deaths were suicides; a few were accidental. About a third of them — 11,078 — were homicides. That’s almost twice the number of Americans who have been killed in a decade of war in Afghanistan and Iraq.

In Britain, by comparison, the number of gun homicides in 2010 was 58. Here we’d consider that a rounding error.

What explains the difference? Well, I spent a few years as The Post’s London bureau chief, and I can attest that Britain has the same social ills that we have — crime, unemployment, alienation, racial strife, mental illness. Britain also has a powerful, rural-based constituency determined to protect the right of hunters to spend weekends blasting away at shadows in the woods. Gun-loving Brits are no less passionate than gun-loving Americans.

All you need is a garage and some metal and wood working tools. No different than a meth lab.

...and would probably be relevant if most gun deaths weren't committed by previously law abiding citizens

or if people would desperately try to get hold of guns because they are addicted to them

or you had a whole subculture of gun pushers selling guns for cheap outside schools to get young people addicted.
