As the state lobbyist for the National Rifle Association likes to point out, it’s the illegal possession of guns that kills people.
But what solutions have the NRA and other gun organizations offered as helpful resolutions to gun violence — outside of keeping guns out of the hands of the mentally ill?
None.
They’re not interested in life.
They are only interested in guns.
How does an order of no possession of guns or ammunition work if no one checks whether the person receiving the injunctive order is a registered gun owner?

The author questions, "How does an order of no possession of guns or ammunition work if no one checks whether the person receiving the injunctive order is a registered gun owner?"
The answer: ...exactly how all laws work. Laws anticipate the majority will comply, as law-abiding members of society, according to their conscience, while law-breakers will have to be caught (by investigation or accident), and duly punished for their transgression.
This is true because we live in a free society, not a prison with "minders" watching our every move. (And, even in prisons, law-breakers will continue to break the rules! ) |

Audrey is a dimwit.
"They are not interested in life, they are only interested in guns."

Here's a sensible dialogue on guns.
Gun laws and restrictions only restrict the honest citizens who aren't the problem.
Criminals will get guns regardless of laws. By definition criminals do not obey the law. Additional gun laws and restrictions will not reduce crimes and violence.
If you are really interested in reducing gun deaths, lock up the gang bangers, and criminals that are breaking the laws. That has been a proven strategy to reduce crimes and violence.
Leave my guns alone. They are not hurting anyone. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
