Real easy!


Just remove ALL the guns from society at large.


No, the criminals will still have them, because they are "criminals"


please take a course in logic. *Once all guns are removed, there are no
more guns. *I'm not saying it would be easy, but ...


I do see what you're trying to get across. I see a problem though, and
that (aside from sheer logistic impossibility) is that the only way to
get the criminals to hand over their guns, or to forcibly take away
those guns....would be at 'gun point'. The cops would have the only
guns left and with it, absolute power...and we all know where _that_
leads us.
Guns, like knives, like clubs, like bows/arrows are a fact of life.
Weapons are a fact of life. To wish them away is not an option.. it
would be awesome if that could be made to happen, but it would be
easier to reverse the rotation of planet.
Having said that, as long as there is some schmuck with ill intent,
wandering the streets of my town, it is my DUTY to protect myself and
my family. The cops won't, so I will.
I reserve the right to be 'equal' to those who wish me and mine, harm.
If you're looking for a model, look no further that Switzerland....
even though the place is full of Switzers.
