This is to all of the people who crusade against an armed American society, why don't you THINK for a second!??!
There are multiple reasons why banning guns would be the worst decision made since establishing the fed. First off let me say that although I'm not
registered at all, I more closely identify with democratic ideals... but NOT THIS ONE.
Here are the reasons why your idea sucks:
1) People who rob banks, invade homes, mug, kill over senseless crap, usually do NOT get their guns from a gun store. There is such thing as an
'underground'.. a 'black market' so to speak. So if your idea goes through, and guns are banned, that wouldn't stop the people who have guns, and have
never been to a gun store. You don't know what a "hot box" is?!?
2) In the event of martial law, (for which we see the plans being laid out) there will be 2 sides. The police and military vs. the people. So in your
"ideal world" the only people with guns are gonna be the people corralling us around, while we have no way to defend ourselves AT ALL??
3) If a guy was gonna go postal, there is no checklist. A GUN IS NOT REQUIRED!!! and we STILL wouldn't have a way to defend ourselves.

Baseball Bat Attack…spree…
So what, are you gonna ban cutlery and baseball bats??
I'm sure people have been injured with butter knives too.. So do we blame the butter knife??
I now have 3 guns (thanks to ATS for helping me choose 2. lol) and they've only been shot at the range. And in the event that I need to use them, to
defend myself or my family, or my home. I will use them.
You, in your wonderful unarmed box that you live in, enjoy that, but please tell me, if somebody kicks your door down (which isn't even uncommon
anymore)... WTF are you gonna do?
ADT isn't Jesus you know....
