We need to ban the sale of bullets
Issue each gun owner only one bullet. Just like Barney Fife
Might as well ban used wheel weights from the tire shops too. I can cast up 500 lead bullets on a good day, and crank out a couple hundred handloads in no time.
Maybe you can
Most wont.
Maybe if they restrict your access to gunpowder
Black market, mofo.
Has restricting those Chicago pavement ape's access to handguns done anything to stop all the shooting of kids on the playground?
In civilized cities, only the Criminal Element accesses the black market for handguns. In cities like Chicago, ALL citizens are required to see independent firearms dealers who work out of the trunks of their cars or the backrooms of cocktail lounges, for their self-defense needs.
How is that a benefit?
Independent dealers don't check IDs or do background checks at all. They sell to minors, Illegal Aliens, the insane, criminals of all types. They don't pay taxes.
The real question isn't "guns or no guns", but safe, legal, effective guns or guns not inspected and sold to anyone with the money
