Fallacy of Gun Control

The first thing is the idea that if a bad guy can’t get a gun legally, he can’t get a gun, period. That legally is the only way a bad guy can get a gun. That taking guns away from the law-abiding does ANYTHING to prevent bad guys from getting the guns they use to victimize the law-abiding. So many ways to show that gun control is FUTILE. It does nothing except make it easier for the bad guys to victimize the law-abiding, who DO obey laws, while the bad guys do NOT. The whole idea that disarming the law-abiding will somehow prevent the bad guys from getting their guns. Disarming yourself is NOT the way to self defense. A country would not divest themselves of their nuclear weapons because to do so would invite other countries with nukes to attack. So why do otherwise intelligent politicians insist on making useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws they KNOW will not do a thing to prevent bad guys from being armed. They have to know that, so why do they keep making those stupid, useless laws? Are they stupid, or what? I’ve never understood them, and as long as they continue in this way, I never will.
