guns were banned in Washington D.C. and, oh my god, they still had gun crimes! but, but, but that's not possible....the guns were banned. once somethings banned no one in the world has it anymore! this can't be! [/sarcasm]
banning guns disarms honest citizens, thats it! criminals dont follow the laws, ergo criminals will still have guns. banning guns would not have prevented that man from getting a gun and killing those people. Myabe it would have been harder for him to get his hands on one, but if he wanted to he could!
Now lets pretend for a moment that the leftists of America get their wish and guns are now banned and somehow, magically, every gun in America disappears. that does not change the fact that there is something wrong with this guy mentally and he wants to kill people. now he is going to use the next best/most readily available weapon to commit his crimes.
see, banning guns or any weapon for that matter isn't going to make much of a difference if it makes any difference at all. If someone wants to kill someone, they are going to find a way to do it. If every honest citizen in this country was disarmed, criminals would have a field day.
