So, if restricting guns only leads to an increase in violence, how do many of the gun supporters here account for the rediculously high murder rate in the US? If everyone having a gun makes us safer, why isn't the US the safest place in the world?
If guns were harder to come by, how much longer would a criminal be able to pick up a cheap gun on the black maket? Wouldn't fewer guns mean a drastic increase in the price of an illegal firearm? Would your average criminal really be able to obtain one as easily?
As a Canadian who's never seen anyone but a cop with a gun in this country, I'm curious as to what Americans believe is the cause for the seriously high gun homicide rate in the US.
