I Love Guns, But I Want Better Gun Control Laws

[Kang Colby]

3. I read this article word for word.

Then I deemed it rubbish. The author just doesn't get it. I'm happy that she is willing to wait a little longer to purchase a gun, that's cool bro. The problem is that the statistically overwhelming majority of homicidal criminals just don't care. The problem isn't the concept of law and order. The issue is that creating acts of mala prohibita in an attempt to reduce mala in se just doesn't work...and I don't think you can find an example of where it does. You don't need a PhD in socioeconomics to understand that. Once someone is willing to accept the risks posed by engaging in gang violence, domestic violence, rampage killings, or terrorism...they aren't going to be hampered by gun control.
