    I hate to disagree with you j4 but I gotta go with rd this time. A complete ban of funds would I'll serve the populace. Criminals will be the only ones with guns at that point.

Well, it would cause a lot of problems for people who live far away from regular civilization who need guns to do everything from protect their property and livestock, to hunt for food. There's also the fact that sport shooting and hunting are both past times that are enjoyed across the country, though I do know that hunting is on the decline and I wouldn't be surprised to hear if sport shooting was too.

As for the fact that criminals would be the only ones with guns, I hear that sentiment thrown around a lot and yeah, there are so many guns in this country that if they were completely outlawed, it would be heck of a struggle to get them all off the streets.

    Have fun when the south secedes on grounds of second amendments rights violation.

I doubt that would happen again.
