I'm still wondering who hacked your account? I don't use copouts. Only you people do.
I've been in favor of gun control since I joined this board.
Berzerker and I argued about it way before your time.

Again, I'm not against gun control. I'm against gun bans.
For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)
I don't support banning the sales of handguns in urban areas, however I do support fingerprinting and gun registration. Don't get me wrong, I don't want felons getting guns. But here in LA it is far too late for that.
You ban guns, then you'll have a situation like the UK. If the police see someone with a gun, 99 times out of 100 it's going to be an illegal gun, and they can go for him. If it's legal, he isn't allowed to carry it in public anyway, so it makes life far easier for the police to catch criminals.

Yeah in the UK you have an example of where crime is skyrocketing... by other means... like knives. So your strawman attacks don't really hold up now do they? Banning guns didn't stop the skyrocketing rate in crime in the UK. In fact during the same time violent crime is falling in the US nationally. So your argument DOES NOT HOLD.
DEBUNKED!

UK murder rate rose from 1999 to 2003, very slightly, but then took a drastic drop last year.
During that same time, firearms usage also increased.

Hardly, violent crime per capita in the UK is miles below the US. It may be rising, but that's like pissing in a rock pool while staring out to sea.

Again, I'm not against gun control. I'm against gun bans.
If by gun control you mean people being able to use guns in licenced gun ranges where the weapons are stored securely and cannot be privately owned, so at least people can enjoy a shooting hobby then I might agree with you. At the very least, weapons should not be allowed in public and especially tight controls should be placed upon concealed weapons.

Our violent crime is dropping, nonetheless.

No, i'm against such pissing on our freedoms. I think people should be able to own guns privately. I don't support pissing on the constitution and freedoms like you do.

When's the UK going to overtake the US in violent crime at current rates? 20 years? 30 years? During which time, do you not think that the post Thatcher crime wave in the UK would have been arrested?
The crime rate itself is mostly in the big cities, Birmingham, London, Nottingham... but former hot spots are now peaceful, like Newcastle and Manchester... violent crime in the UK is far easier to stamp out than in the US because we're a fundamentally more peaceful society with no history of high gun penetration to deal with.
