Why gun control cannot work: I’m not sure why the left can’t understand this. The more gun control you pass, the fewer law abiding people able to defend themselves. The criminals? They’ll be armed.
The only thing that will reduce the risk of gun crime to the extent that progressives want is to amend the constitution to make it possible for the government to confiscate all guns and do this by going into people's homes and other private spaces to find the guns and remove them.
Confiscation of guns will greatly reduce the most common forms of gun crime and death -- suicides, gang violence, family and acquaintance conflict. Big events like the mass murder in Las Vegas will still take place because people with the kind of determination shown by Stephen Paddock will find ways to get the guns. It's illegal for people to possess explosives, but terrorists still find ways to get them. It's the same with automatic weapons.

It would make it harder for people like Paddock to get guns. No law can stop the crime completely.
But thanks for confirming that gun laws would greatly reduce the amount of people killed in gang violence and family conflict - there's hope for you yet.
Those "gun laws" you refer to include overturning the 2nd Amendment and ignoring the 4th Amendment.

Amendments can be changed or removed with the correct legal process.

He didn't say "gun laws", he said, an all out gun ban with doors broken down and guns confiscated from law abiding citizens.
A gun ban would result from gun laws. Jeez.

Ummm, no. It would require a bit more than that. Jeez back atcha.
Care to explain how the government would ban guns without a law?

Which would be part of the legal process, i.e. law. Jeez.

Okay, explain to us how that "legal process" would work, exactly. Be detailed and specific.
I mention gun confiscation because it's politically impossible to implement. However, anything short of that will have no significant effect on gun crimes.
The... ...weapons.

And wouldn't that go over like a ton of lead. Pun intended.He didn't say "gun laws", he said, an all out gun ban with doors broken down and guns confiscated from law abiding citizens.
Not sure but I think gun owners just got stereotyped.Like Paddock? What was he "like"?
In the old days, gangs used baseball bats, knives and chains to kill each other. Domestic abusers use whatever is handy...usually their appendages.
Gun control/confiscation would only make people who can overwise defend themselves, more unsafe.

I see no evidence for this. The goal is harm reduction not harm elimination and gun control can achieve this
