Myth No. 3 — Guns are Bad

[[CAKE]anonymity]

They have statistics from before and now

Wha and I were the only ones who actually posted statistics.

Do you really think criminals will have any problem acquiring weapons...legal OR illegal if guns are banned??

I fail to see the relievance in legallity. They do have the ability to get their hands on firearms illegally usually because of the black market that wha brought up. If you dont hand out the amount of guns the supply of them goes down (less people able to obtain them) and subsequently less guns make it to the black market because of the fact that less people are obtaining them. Supply and demand.

All guns are handed out legally, they just get passed around illegally. Stop the flow of guns handed out legally and it will eventually stop them getting into the hands of criminals.

I remember an email joke that said since violence in youths is so high, we should hand out guns to each one of them and let them carry it around in schools. It would become much safer because everyone could defend themselves. I hope you all see the failed logic.
