As far as the crime rates go, I’m told (but haven’t confirmed for myself) that if inner cities’ gang warfare is dropped from our statistics, we start looking comparable to those western European countries. If so, the problem is not the guns, but the inner cities, and I think it’d be wrong to punish ALL of America for what goes on in the inner cities.

And gangsters will be the last ones to comply with any gun control law. This is a major reason why I’m the lonely liberal who opposes gun control. (Actually, I’m a libertarian at the liberal end of the libertarian spectrum.)
