Yes. It's fun to make jokes, but most of the time the government acts fairly rationally, or at least in tune with public sentiment. Most people agree with most of the criminal laws. Most people agree with most traffic laws. Fundamentally, most people agree with most things that the government (at any level) does. We just make a really big fuss about a few things. Sure, it's "possible" to outlaw all guns. It's just not realistically likely. But - my point was simply that people who are simply "against gun control" are idiots. Everybody favors some degree of gun control. All we are debating is how much, and what kind. |

To what level? Completely out lawing them or to a point? As said a few times, "control" is a broad term in this particular subject. I personally believe in control to an extent. More so with the paperwork aspect rather than completely making them or particular ones illegal. Edited by Glassjaw |

Criminals don't follow laws. So who will be disarmed with the addition of more laws? Honest people that register their guns with law enforcement. If some of you don't want to be able to protect your families from an intruder that's your choice. |

If I needed a gun ASAP... I'd be SOL with the waiting period. If a criminal needed a gun ASAP... he'd have no trouble at all. That's where the error lies... No matter how hard they make it to buy a gun, criminals will still be able to get them. And even if they couldn't, wouldn't they just resort to knives? Last I checked, there are other things that can kill people. I also like to ponder this one: If a gun is used in a crime, liberals think that shooting should be outlawed. If a baseball bat is used in a crime, why not outlaw baseball? |

Why in the world would you need a gun ASAP? Assuming you are an honost citizen, what would you need a gun this instant for? |

Why would you enter a potentially hostile situation without being sure you would be able to help? Thats putting 2 more lives on the line. The people around didn't seem to take notice, so I assumed it was a boyfriend. This guy looked about 40, but we were at least 200 feet away. |

Gah! Enough with the slogans!! This is a horrible "argument", and always has been! By this theory, we shouldn't bother with laws against murder, since murderers won't obey them anyway. By this theory, we shouldn't bother with any laws at all, because some people won't obey them. Dumb dumb dumb dumb. Besides, beyond being dumb, this "argument" is obviously false, and completely irrelevant to boot, since many gun control laws work indirectly anyway. |
