If we want to reduce gun crime, why not just ban pistols? I seem to recall something like 80% of all gun crime uses pistols, with mass shootings being statistically invisible. The problem seems to be concealability not firepower, and you can defend your home from burglars and tyrants just fine without a shitty glock. (possible exception for cool sporting pistols, which are already too expensive to use robbing 7-11s)
Why? Because fuck you, faggot. I like my guns. I like the Second Amendment.
The overwhelmingly majority of people harmed by violence in America are minorities which is to say I don't give a single fuck.

So say they ban handguns overnight, what happens? Homicides stay the same. You know why? Jamal won't give a shit about your new law. We gave lots of handgun crime here and the law tells me my cz75 doesn't leave my home unless it's on a direct path to the range or gunsmith.
So how do we have crime with laws like that op?
Oliver Baker
Because why the fuck would criminals hand in their guns?
And even if we did manage to magically get rid of all guns, we'd just be regressing to a society where the big and strong can do whatever they want with no consequences. 6'7" Jamal doesn't need a gun to rape 5'3" Stephanie.
Camden Sanders
nice edge there. you're paying for all that black ER care so, y'know, fuck off. Everywone is better off when half the country isnt a bullethole ridden ghetto.
ty, a serious reply. i guess the problem is that one city isnt a big enough area, obviously pistols arent going to disappear overnight. i'd consider it a good data point though, if not a damning one.
anything positive, ie a good reason to own a pistol?
Noah Barnes

Ok I'll bite. Putting aside 2nd amendment issues, it's because concealability goes both ways. Defenders need to conceal their own weapons for a number of reasons as well. Not all encounters occur in homes

Nothing happens overnight. Slowly pistol supply diminishes, faster with cash4gunz programs. Pistols never dissapear entirely but get priced out of tge range of the kind of trash that use them for muggings and street volence. Dumb people commit crimes with knives and their fists instead, which are much less lethal.

Niggers will never follow a gun ban. Look at Chicago. Start enforcing current gun laws and locking up the criminals instead of treating them as victims. Time to build ultra mega prisons and lock up every single nigger criminal.

Dont people mostly use mace for this even where concealed carry is legal? This is a good argument though, i respect guns for being the great equalizer. Not 100% convinced though, a pistol wont save you in a wide variety of scenarios and a 50% higher chance of your assailant not having a gun might serve you better.

You lost, all gun threads are bait threads. Trump is expanding concealed carry nation wide, and giving people nation wide stand your ground. Its over, forever. Shoot to kill policy on coons.
Blake Perry
Fun fact: they already tried that.
Originally FDR wanted to see all handguns banned with the National Firearms Act, but they were unable to get that done, so that's why we have SBR laws today. They couldn't ban pistols outright, so they targeted short rifles and shotguns.
Suggesting that pistols be banned is promoting socialism, and socialists should be lined up and dispatched by a firing squad.

Mace is a fucking joke and anyone who trusts it to stop an attacker is retarded. If you're threatened enough to mace someone, and you have time to pull mace out of your purse, then you'd be better off shooting them or running.

Do what you want in Canada. Pushing any further on gun control in america will lead to, at the very least, politicians getting recalled. At most, a full on revolt where gun grabbers get dragged into the street and shot.
Don't. Fuck. With. Our. Guns.
As a matter of fact I'd like to see silencers and full auto weapons de regulated. Semis are more lethal than full autos anyway. Precision fire>spray and pray all day.

I really don't understand why some people just don't get the fact that criminals don't obey the law.
James Edwards
Why is it that the fuckers who are so dedicated to this always trying to frame the issue as "what guns or gun owners can we ban"?
But for this specific case, it's trivial for even an untrained retard to take a long gun and cut it down to handgun size. See also Sawed off shotguns, Obreezes. AR pistols.
If you're really going to give this much of a fuck about this issue, you should do basic research on self defense.
Look after your own house first. Canada had a case recently, where a man used firearms to defend his house against people with molotov cocktails. You think it's Canda's laws that are the difference maker and not the culture? The lack of equivalent of Detrioit? No, surrey doesn't count as anywhere close.
Dominic Miller
You would have to pass a law to register the weapons, then a law to ban the weapons, then a law to seize or buyback the firearms. Nothing will get through Congress. No American will register their guns, there is no way to know who has what, it will never work. And..... SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

You cannot effectively legislate if you're afraid to call a spade a spade. There is no gun problem. There is no need for gun control. America would be damn near a paradise if niggers quit destroying our inner cities.
Austin Wood
If your stolen gun is worth $5k you dont rob a kwikEmart, you fence that shit.
Deporting all undesirables is always just as impractical as it would be effective. (inB4 gas em) Anyway this is a gun control thread, your liberals will keep bringing it up so it doesnt hurt to have a strategic retreat planned in case it becomes politically neccesary.
Owen Lewis
Look at the U.K. They banned guns and now all the attacks are people getting stabbed or cars or acid so if we ban guns we should also ban all of those as well
And if you don't know the technical know how to make these, I'll do it for a price and there are thousands of people like me all over the US who would do the same.
If you try to ban guns in the US you are fucked, people like me will make sure of it you filthy commie leaf
Eli Davis
Why are Texas and Florida the only non-cucked states?

Why not just create a gun registry and ban private transactions? That way decisive criminals will have a much harder time getting a gun, and normal people can still buy whatever they want. This way you don't even break the 2nd amendment

>implying nigs know what shit is worth >implying it's easy to fence the type of unique firearms that would fetch $5k on the normal market
Most of those guns are ex-police guns, likely from CPD and surrounding areas. Notice how the article talks about a large number of sales coming from a handful of gun stores outside of Chicago. $10 says they get a lot of police trade-in's. That give you a Glock at 300-350 versus 450-500+ Same for the older S&W's.
Nicholas Parker
Guns gotta come from somewhere. Constrain supply and even criminals run out.
Yeah that case was fucked up. As for doingy research, i guess its a bit lazy but im not arguing for a pistol ban, just posing the hypothetical.
Modifying long guns for concealibility is a damning point though. If it really is that easy, then yeah a pistol ban would be pointless.
OOW WHAT ARE YA DOIN', PAUL?! GET THAT OUTTA THERE BETWEEN THE CRIB BARS!
Benjamin Sullivan
Indeed, handguns are typically more used for crimes than the scary "assault" rifles that the left is so intent on trying to ban. Why is that I wonder? Because handguns aren't as scary, because politicians don't actually give a shit about what's going on, and just set their eyes on a target they need to ban, before moving on to something else. In the EU, after semi-auto rifles will be banned, handguns will be right next. And then hunting rifles, that our politicians consider like military snipers that need to be take out of the streets, and finally shotguns/black powder/antiques/air guns/paintball/airsoft and anything that remotely looks like a gun and/or can propel a projectile.
Now you can fuck off, leaf.

>Constrain supply and even criminals run out.
Not true. Australia has had major gun control for over 20 years and what has happened? Now over 10% of all firearms recovered are cottage built machine guns.
Today, guns in the States are legal, at least in most places. I carry 2-3 guns daily. If tomorrow guns were illegal and stiff penalties came with possession/carrying, am I going to stop carrying? Fuck no. I'll just upgrade to something more powerful.
If the penalty for carrying a regular pistol is the same as carrying a machine pistol or cut down rifle or grenade launcher, why not upgrade?
Tyler Myers
It's a step in the right direction.
Andrew White
Some one tell me why what his father did was wrong?
Nicholas Scott
Why do people who want to talk about reducing violent crime always defer to guns as if they somehow make the nature of the crime worse? Look at the UK, very little gun crime, quite a lot of knife crime, blunt weapon crime, and even recently an increase in chemical weapons crime. So why guns? I legitimately do not understand the focus. All it does is force criminals to either resort to a) illegal firearms, or b) alternative means. People will always commit violent crime, particularly in highly heterogenous areas.
A comparison we can make to this is hate crime. What is the difference between an assault, and a racially motivated assault? In both scenarios we have some person beating another senseless, but if it is tried as a hate crime, suddenly the perpetrator gets an additional few years tacked on to his sentence. Do those extra few years make the victim any less beaten? No, of course not. It's an arbitrary appendix to make people feel better about themselves without actually generating a greater amount of restitution. It's just one more thing bogging down the justice system needlessly.
It's people like you who remind me why Canadians ought to be fighting tooth and claw for a second amendment of our own.
Jason Sanders

A gun is essentially a fairly precise hammer, with springs and shit to get the next round into place. A magazine, is a metal box, so a ban on magazine sizes is trying to control the size of metal boxes.
Banning specific guns doesn't really work well.
Banning all guns has the issue of smuggling, and internal manufacturing, as guns aren't that complicated to begin with. Maybe if your'e a small island it might work.
Canada, Switzerland ect have lots of guns, but they also have law abiding citizens who care for their society. So any gun law is going to be much more effective there than New Jersey or Mexico.
Mason Sanchez

Xavier Ortiz
See, that's exactly what's missing in western countries nowadays, and especially in Europe. How do all those British, German, Swedish, etc fathers can look at themselves in a mirror?

OP should keep in mind that the Gun Control Act of 1968 already banned the import of small caliber crappy pistols, AKA Saturday Night Specials which were a huge problem. They still are, with .22 Jimenezes and Phoenix Arms and Bryco crap still plaguing our streets. Problem is those are made in the USA. Still very popular with low level street garbage.

Assuming this isn't bait. I used to think that to. the problem is no matter what, people WILL get them somehow, either by buying them illegally, or by making ghetto ones. Even THEN it might reduce the number of gun deaths, but it will do nothing to the total number of murders. people WILL find a way to kill someone if they want to, I mean fuck look at sweden with grenade and machete attacks. Honestly the best way to deal with a criminal with a gun, is a good guy with a gun. because guns are the great equalizer. a old lady is just as dangerous as a teenager. so if some hoodlum broke into your grandmothers house, she would stand a much btter chance if she had a gun.
