Great story about the passage of gun "control" laws in the U.S.

[Little-Acorn]

A fascinating essay on the effects of our so-called gun control laws, economic and otherwise.

WELL documented and referenced. Long, but an excellent, easy read. Save a copy, pass it around.

Great read. Gun control in this country always has been a joke.

Gun control isn't possible I would think. To use a hackneyed phrase, you can't put the genie back in the bottle.

[Little-Acorn]

Gun control means using both hands.

Works for me.

[diuretic]

Two hands are necessary as is a proper stance.

[Little-Acorn]

Gun control isn't possible I would think.
It's not only impossible, it's counterproductive. As the essay pointed out, it makes criminals out of millions of law-abiding citizens, and disarms the rest, while doing nothing to stop criminals.

Yet the politicians keep trying it.
