I haven't read the entire thread, but I definitely have a firm opinion on gun laws and gun control.
Banning hand guns in any city will not reduce hand gun crimes.
Crack cocaine is banned. Marijuana is banned. A lot of shit is banned. Yet it's still there. Yes, let's punish the law abiding citizens of the US by taking away their defense against bastards that are willing to use guns to commit a crime.
If you take away the legal guns, the illegal guns will still remain. We are then defenseless. Unless the US wants to pay all of the former handgun owners to learn knife training and close quarter combat. And hand out bullet proof vests.
I can see it now. "let's rob that house......they look like law-abiding citizens. they won't have any hand guns. let's do this."
