Where do these fools get the idea that legislation will reduce gun crimes?
They've been imposing so-called "gun control" laws on us for decades. And every time they do, gun crimes virtually never go down. Far more often, they go up. Do these people even know that? Are they ever bothering to check on the results of the laws they keep imposing?
All the gun laws do, is disarm the law-abiding. Criminals apparently decline to obey them. (patiently) That's why they're called criminals.
BTW, the people passing the laws, are also criminals. They are flatly violating the Constitution, the 2nd amendment in particular. If they would stop doing that, gun deaths WOULD go down... at last.
If people were allowed to carry weapons (especially concealed), most of them still wouldn't bother. But a few would... and the criminals would know that somewhere in the crowd were probably a few people who could and would shoot back. And the criminals could never know where the bullet would come from. Many would have second thoughts about committing their crime at all. And the gun-crime rate would do down... without a shot being fired, and with nobody killed, injured, or even threatened.
The Democrats are consistently against that position. Why on earth do they want to avoid the only solution that has consistently worked? The laws they do favor, do nothing but make the criminals safer in his work.
The only gun laws that have actually "worked", was when a nation completely bans guns, and often go door to door to forcibly confiscate everybody's personal defense weapons. Barack Obama even praised this policy, when he announced he admired the policies of Australia and England. Both of those are island nations with no easy borders with other countries, and both virtually banned and confiscated all their law-abiding subjects' guns. And crimes are rising steadily in both places.
Anything short of such a complete ban and confiscation, simply leaves gun in the hands of criminals while disarming the law-abiding. And gun crimes have persisted anyway, especially with innocent people unable to fight back.
Is this what the Democrats have in mind for law-abiding Americans, too? Especially since we have huge, long borders with two major countries where guns can be brought in easily and in quantities, by anyone who cares to ignore the laws?
