Blair said that for him, “there is no greater responsibility than the safety of our communities and the safety of our kids,”
Banning handguns isn't going to work any better than banning pot.
The fact that pot has been illegal hasn't kept people from using it.
I highly doubt if ANY of the shootings on the streets are by law abiding citizens with registered firearms, who have applied for, and received, a permit to transport their weapon. (required ANY time you take your weapon out in public, say from home to the range)
Handguns are already restricted, and it should be as simple as, if you find an unregistered gun on a person, THAT'S where you increase the pressure, perhaps 10 years just for possessing a handgun without a permit.
Far too often, the law abiding (I feel funny saying that here...lol) are the ones who suffer, and lose their rights and privileges because of the few bad apples.
From my perspective, guns are tools, if they didn't have guns, they'd have something else...
PS. I don't own a gun, although I did hunt a couple times...
