That seems to be the purpose of the anti-gun fools, not “stemming
gun violence,” as they claim. Every time we find something we can
use to defend ourselves, whether it is a gun, or something else, they
want to outlaw it. I once was in line at a 7-11 store with a
uniformed cop behind me. I had one of those metal flashlights in my
pocket, and that cop took notice. He said, “You know, that could be
considered a weapon, don't you?” I replied, “Yes; and if I ever
use it as a weapon, we can discuss it then.” He just laughed, but
his question revealed a mindset in many cops and legislators.
ANYTHING that can be used as a weapon, they want to outlaw. Every law
they make (so far) does its best to make the guns we DO have useless
for self defense. Gun locks, gun safes, and laws regulating the
storage of guns do exactly that: makes them USELESS for self defense
because they cause it to take way too long to “get it into action”
when we are threatened by a thug wielding an ILLEGAL gun.
Then there
are such things as “gun-free zones,” where law-abiding people
don't bring their guns, but criminals DO. They IGNORE such laws, and
actively seek out such places, because they know that law-abiding
people will not usually be armed for self defense so they can
victimize them, at will. They have to know their current laws are
USELESS to stop criminals with ILLEGAL guns from victimizing
law-abiding people, but they keep making them, anyway—which says a
lot about them. So it's no wonder places like Chicago, which have
some of the tightest gun laws in the land, also have the highest
numbers of gun crimes anywhere. They have to know that, too, but they
will not hear of allowing law-abiding people to have and carry their
own guns for self defense against ILLEGALLY-armed criminals, even
though the Constitution guarantees us that right. (Just common sense)
