I personally believe that a gun ban is treating the symptom and ignoring the cause.

Anti-gun laws could very well turn out to be similar to our drug laws. There is a long list of drugs that are illegal and have been for years. One or more of them are available for purchase in just about any neighborhood, mall or school in the country. I don't like it, but its true. Don't believe me? Ask your kids.

I don't know the answer but alcohol prohibition and the drug war have proved that restriction will not necessarily interfere with supply. It merely forces it underground where there will be no waiting periods, no regulations and no registration. Anyone who can scrape together a few bucks will be able to arm themselves. THAT is what scares me.

If you find a REAL answer, I will gladly sign on.
