 tr> Gun control means only criminals and cops will have guns.
 tr> No. Only law abiding people obey laws. Criminals don't.

I have yet to figure out why people do not understand this.  They think
because other countries don't have as many shootings neither would we.  Of
course, those countries also do not have other freedoms, like speach, that we
do... and when folks want to kill people, they just blow them up.

 -> Will gun control lower crime?
 tr> no. Pretty well every mass shooting in the US has occurred in `gun-free
 tr> zones'!

Or by people using illegally-obtained weapons.

 tr> It already IS a `right'. The Second amendment is the ONLY `license' a
 tr> citizen needs to "Keep and Bear Arms". With the exception of making it
 tr> a crime for convicted criminals to have firearms, all other `gun laws'
 tr> are un-Constitutional.

Yep, but the longer they stay on the books the harder they are to get rid of.
