I wish I could disagree with you... but I can't. Here in the UK our gun control laws only work because of how long they've been in place, thus though there are guns in circulation, there are far less. In the US, if gun control laws were made more strict, they'd also have the job of getting rid of the ones which already exist, and I'm in no doubt that criminals simply won't hand theirs back!
i disagree. Replace the word guns with drugs.
We don't give up trying to police or control drugs just because there is a huge supply out there and those that bought them are unlikely to want to give them back!
Why would we agree that guns are too difficult to police and continue to spend a fortune trying to eradicate item that (in some cases) literally grows from the soil?
Surely it is much "easier" to police firearms (that require some heavy machinery to make, that say weed or magic mushrooms, which quite literally can be produced with little more than a bucket of dirt.
The problem is not guns. Never were guns, it's people that's the problem. We're wasting our time controlling guns when we need to control people instead.
When people talk about gun control they are talking about controlling people's access to guns.
This country, the USA, was founded as a Christian nation and we all get along just fine. We open our borders to others who wants to be free like us and come live as an American.
Instead they bring their religions and ideals and try to convert the USA. As a result we don't get along. It got to where I don't like you and you don't like me. This country was based on freedom and now we got all kinds of people living here.
It's a fact that we will have this kind of problem and no gun control will solve it.
Whilst I think that statement is a bit of a broad brush...
It is fair to say that when two people with radically different values come together. And those values are based on something that cannot change. (And is wildly open to claims about what context those values are even written in, with details lost to the past, some invented "Hollywood history" around it and parts cherry picked from it...
Then yes there are going to be problems.
That document could be a religious text, scripture or even the US constitution.
(You know how people claim the right to bear arm, whilst ignoring the historical context of previous colonial rule, the necessity to form militia, the technology of the weapons available at that time etc... Coupled with a healthy does of Wild West Cowboys from Hollywood saving lives and curing injustice with their trusty guns...) it really is a recipie for disaster!
