And liquor was available during prohibition...
And loosies (individual cigarettes) are being sold openly in New York, purchased elsewhere and smuggled into the city to avoid extremely high taxes...
And illicit drugs like cocaine and heroin can be purchased off street corners across the country...
Where there are buyers, there will be sellers. No matter what the fairy tale goals of the gun-banners are, those items exist and will find there way into communities. Remember Pandora and her box?
By making guns "illegal", one simply drives that market into the shadows and puts the law-abiding at a disadvantage. |

Which is all beside the point.
We have an unalienable right, recognized and guaranteed in the Constitution, to keep and bear GUNS.
While your rationale is sound it is unnecessary, and instead of making such arguments, the 'debate' should be shut down immediately after it starts by declaring the above disclaimer. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I now think the only way to control handgun use is to prohibit the guns. And the only way to do that is to change the Constitution. — M. Gartner, then President of NBC News, USA Today, January 16, 1992, pg. A9 |
