It's also useful to point out that disarmament inevitably leads to pogroms and genocide.

Also, that weapons cannot be legislated away. People can just print firearms now. We have been able to make edged weapons since we discovered how to chip rocks. Knife bans won't work either.

Except that people that obey the law will obey the law, leaving only criminals, defined as those that do not obey laws, to have every kind of weapon they desire to commit their crimes with. Laws banning personal arms only disarm those that should have the weapons to protect them from criminals, who will not obey the laws.

Had it not been for citizens armed with personal weapons, there would be no Deerfield, no Illinois, no America, at all.

There is nothing more anti-American than banning personal arms. Except maybe seizing those arms good people refuse to relinquish. That's just Nazism, plain and simple.

Thanks!
