[QUOTE="henschman, post: 2686587, member: 4235"] I am outright dismissive of all "guns make you less safe" arguments that only take private criminals into account. After all, the antis are not arguing for doing away with ALL guns (or at least I've never heard anyone seriously make that argument) -- they are arguing for taking away PRIVATELY OWNED guns, and leaving the government armed. Giving them the benefit of the doubt that the law would be obeyed (I know its a stretch), this would only disarm the least worrisome criminals, and would leave arms in the hands of those who historically commit all the worst crimes. Until somebody wants to try to refute this research: [url]http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/20TH.HTM[/url] I am not moved by such arguments. [/QUOTE]
