Gotta start somewhere.

Jon made the same point about slavery. I asked him if he was willing to
see
the country enter a period of civil war with hundreds of thousands dead,
infrastructure destroyed, and an economy in the toilet for decades in
order
to grab guns and save a few dozen lives each year. So far no answer.

It's far more than a few dozen, Every year in the US more than 30,000
are killed by guns in murders, suicides and accidents, over 65,000 are
injured.

I'd think it's worth looking at.

Gun control, as proposed by its advocates might result in saving a few dozen
lives each year. The vast majority of gun deaths in this country are
inner-city gangs and thugs shooting each other. Look it up.

Gun control laws will have no effect on the inner city gangs. They possess
their guns illegally as it is. Washington DC has the toughest gun control
laws in the country. It also is perennially a leader in gun deaths.
