Okay, stupid.
Most countries have successfully outlawed guns... Kind of easy. If no one can make them or sell them, it's pretty darned easy.
No country has ever successfully banned abortion.
Now, how successful a law is depends entirely on how keen people are on enforcing it and willing to turn in their neighbors. No one is going to turn in their neighbors for having an abortion, no one is going to convict a woman of having one in a court of law.
On the other hand, banning guns would be pretty easy. No one really wants to live next door to a trigger happy gun nut.
Well it seems you dont know as much about guns, nor abortion, as you think you do.
Abortion laws around the world are highlighted here.
These are the countries where it's still illegal to get an abortion
Now some facts about guns, and gun owners.
Here Are 8 Stubborn Facts on Gun Violence in America
Concealed Carry permit holders are literally the least criminal group in the country. Those trigger happy gun nuts you decry, are literally the most law abiding group in the country. Why would you want to live next door to someone who is far more likely to commit a crime, possibly against you or your family, than the LEAST criminal group in the nation?
Report Finds These Gun Owners Are Least Likely Criminals
Police commit crimes six times more often than the concealed carry permit holders. Seriously. So the cops you plan on keeping the peace, and protecting you, something they are not constitutionally required to do, are six times more likely to commit a crime than the ātrigger happy gun nutā next door.
It seems to me, that you are aware of a lot of propaganda, but very little in the way of real factual information. In fact, you are doing exactly what the moron wanted when he shot up the bar. He wanted a push for Gun Control. Now, if that isnāt crazy, I donāt know what is. shooting a bunch of people, to push for gun control.
Now, have you ever heard of Ghost Guns? Ghost Guns are manufactured anywhere. Take some scrap metal, and you can make a gun. A functional weapon. You donāt need advanced tools, you donāt need a state of the art workshop. You just need a few basic tools. This documentary follows Ghost Guns from the jungles outside Manila to the streets of America, to Central America.
Now, how many people have the basic tools you see in that show? Assuming you bothered to watch it. Chances are, if you have an auto repair kit, you have most of them needing only a file, and a hacksaw, and some scrap metal.
If you want to make even more guns, then youāll need a bigger operation. Like this one in Pakistan.
That is an advanced operation isnāt it? I mean, cutting edge of technology mate.
It is why the war on drugs will always fail. Because making Crystal Meth is easy with a few ingredients. Importing the drugs you canāt make, is easy too. You want to talk about lessons we wonāt learn, the war on drugs is one lesson we refuse to learn, we keep up the same failed policies, year after year, regardless of administration, or political party in power, and we act like itās going to work this year. Nuts.
Chances are, you have enough basic skills to make a gun. If youāve ever taken a semester of Metal Shop, I know you have the basic skills. Now, take that basic skill, and multiply it by all the kids, who ever took shop, for all the years in question. Now do you see the problem? We moved Sudafed behind the counter and you have to provide name and address and a retinal scan to buy it. Result Crystal Meth production has increased over 1,000% according to the DEA who needs more funds to fight the war on Crystal Meth.
Where you could find an ounce of Crystal Meth, you can now find Kilograms of it. Because there is more now than ever before.
Tell me you can get the genie back in the bottle. Tell me how. Because There are hundreds of millions of guns out there, and youāll never get them all, and while you are trying, people will be in garages and basements and wooded areas around their homes making more. Not to mention the 3D printed guns that will flood outwards.
So tell me again how you plan on doing this. Because I just donāt see how it could possibly work. All that would happen is you would paint targets on three million cops, which is how many we have in this nation. Tell me how three million cops manage to round up the guns. You couldnāt do it with ten times that many.
