Most of the people I know who are staunchly anti-gun are pro-establishment dems

And maybe a portion of progressives

Actually

Not having guns is a good thing

And why is that?

Idk about progressives because most that I know still want guns to be legal

Not having guns is not feasible

In America it would be impossible

That’s the problem

Exactly

To outlaw guns

Guns would mean a lot less disasters

You could outlaw them but it wouldn’t be effective

And why is that?

No school shootings

Nope.

Yes but no

Gun control takes guns away from people who get them legally.

Outlawing guns just means that criminals have the guns

Depends on how well you ban them

Thank you @SiliconBassist

Exactly.

People can still have them smuggled in.

That means only criminals have guns.

Yes

In the uk there are but they’re very hard to come by

Because criminals do NOT give a single shit if they get it legally.

It would work about as well as alcohol prohibition

Yes

Oh no

And the penalty is very hefty

What to debate about

And citizens wouldn't be able to stop the shooter.

Nor police

Because all they have are batons

and butter knives.

Yet in the US

And holy-

Police are allowed to have guns lol

A gun carrier can just gun down the shooter.
