No one is seeking to take your guns away. My position is really about economics. Gun violence is a negative external cost of the commerce in firearms. I seek to place that cost back in the market where it belongs. The result would be that firearms would be more expensive, including their true cost. Guns would bear a price reflective of their risks with the insurance industry enforcing standards by way of the market.
The result OF THAT would be a marked increase in the number of firearms purchased from illegal, lower cost sources without that pesky license.
So, you are arguing that because criminals will attempt to cirumvent the laws, we should not make and enforce them? Why not legalize murder and forget about the whole thing?
