Sure some hardcore criminals would still have guns but overall the gun related violence would go down. How much of this shit do you think we see in Sweden?
With that attitude we might as well allow RPG's and handgrandes, cuz outlawing them wouldn't do jack shit.

I mean making it legal to buy a device who's sole purpose is to injure and kill other people in order to protect one self against other people with the same device just makes no fucking sense to me. Have you ever heard about this little thing called the spiral of violence?

I don't know anyone who owns a handgun, I like it that way.
There are alot of differences between Sweden and the United States though. Most reports I've read (just google it yourself) state that gun related crime (including homocide) has increased since they enforced bans on most gun ownership in Australia in 1996. I think alot of factors play into it, and 'banning' guns really isn't going to solve 99% of them. When you're raised on gangster rap by a crackwhore in some ghetto shithole what do you expect.
