I wonder how often people owning guns prevent crime compared to how often people owning guns causes crime. I suspect it contributes to more than it prevents (but gun culture certainly plays part).

Its cool, sorry bout the typos this things a pain in the ass. You should YouTube "gangland" in America and type in crip or blood or Mexican Mafia or aryian brotherhood. That's who will control the sale of guns in America if their ever banned legally. Tell me what you think.

I'm thinking less fear, less violence. You could have the same sort of crime, but perhaps that crime would be less violent because the threat of someone bringing a firearm into it is much smaller.

I'd love to see how this goes over. Quote:

My personal view?
If your country is in a position whereby removing or restricting the right to own guns will genuinely be a bad idea because of the potential for people to react badly, or because there is such a demand for these things that illegal trafficking would be an unstoppable force, then frankly, things probably got screwed up long enough ago that nothing can help in the present day. Amusingly, this also works for tobacco and alcohol. The problem isn't that gun control doesn't work. The problem is that so much of the American population doesn't want it to be ABLE to work.

The best gun control you can have is a good economy, a minimum wage that keeps pace with inflation, and medical service that meet the needs of the population, especially mental health services. Taking away guns won't stop someone from making a bomb, or poisoning food. You need to remove the impetus from the individuals.
