Default Re: More guns the way to go? Some thoughs.

Also, if you make guns illegal, the supply of guns will drop dramatically, regardless of the demand. Who is going to make new guns if their manufacturer and importation is illegal? It's not like the average criminal can create a handgun (or even a bullet) in his basement. Obviously, there will be existing guns floating around for a few decades, but I think most gun control advocates acknowledge that they really forsee a gun-free society 50-years down the road, and not 5-years.

This is the funniest thing I have read all day.

You do realize that there is zero cocaine or heroin manufactured in the US, right? That it's been illegal for the better part of a century, right? Why don't we have a "drug free society" yet? That the supply of cocaine and heroin is higher than it's ever been right? That even if you could magically stop them, people just cook up things like crystal meth, right? People make guns by hand all the time. I could make one in my shed. I've seen the plans for making a fully automatic sub-machinegun. What are you going to ban next, machine shops?

Totally ridiculous.
