Annual crime stats will be released this week, and the number of people killed in gun-related violence is expected to be as high as ever. Chandre Gould and Adele Kirsten argue that interviews with men who are serving time in jail for violent crimes indicate that gun ownership alone is a key problem

Hlupha was eight when he got his first gun.

Another pair of flaming liberals that want to uninvent gun powder.

Apparently, they actually believe that more gun laws in a country with draconian gun laws will disarm the thugs? That is wishful thinking as it will not happen.

Note that the number of licensed (legal) gun owners in South Africa decreased from 2.4 million to 1.8 million from 1994 to 2011 as the result of very strict gun laws. This in a country with a population of 53 million. Therefor, legal gun owners comprise less than 3.5 percent of the population. They disarmed 600,000 people, but the criminals have no problem getting guns as is documented in the article.

If it were possible to eliminate guns, that would just give the stronger, younger thugs absolute dominance over their victims and eliminate even the minor threat of robbing the wrong person and getting shot.

Be careful what you wish for.
