The law abiding people might turn them in but that is not who poses
the problem. I think you night even find a number of otherwise law
abiding people who would stuff a few under the insulation in the attic
or something, assuming the law would be repealed or simply ruled
against in court.

They would get the illegal ones off of the street after a fashion by
attrition.


That assumes nobody ever smuggled any more in. Bear in mind drug gangs
make their money on a smuggled product.


Another in your never-ending barrage of "we can't do anything, so let's
do nothing" posts.


Banning things only increases their value which means a bigger payday
for the smugglers. It is not a hard concept to understand unless you
only look at it from a political points perspective.
