But I think the point that was made to you in response to that assertion is
that it is a canard-- it will never happen, and so you really could never prove
it anyway.
But people have thought along those lines and tried to ban guns anyway. Again
it was pointed out that in all cases, disarming the population *increases*
violent crime. It's a no brainer. If the bad guy is the only one with a gun,
he will be *emboldened*, not thwarted. Taking my gun away does not magically
disarm the bad guy.
So unless you are able to enact your premise "No guns = no gun related
violence" (which Larry conceded you, BTW), your statement is false (as borne
out *in reality*). Truth. Deal with it.
