"Give me a thousand in cash--coin of the realm--and I could go into any large city in North America and acquire a handgun or rifle within 12 hours. The legalityillegality of guns is a farce."


1. I agree with you. So why shgould more ineffective laws be of any use, except to disarm the law-abiding citizen?

2. Name a single country that the statement would NOT be true. Those with more restrictive laws like Russia, England, and others still have gun violence.

3. Look at the countries with a requirement for fully automatic weapons in the home ( Israel, Switerland). Is there more or less crime there than in the restricted nation, like Russia?
