My thoughts too. I dont even like that I own guns, the responsibility that comes with it and whatnot, but American police have shown time and time again that they cannot and will not solve civil issues.

Combine that with the fact that there are many social groups who would rather go into criminal status than give up their weapons in the event of a mass ban and you’ll suddenly have a large group of honest, well-intentioned people stuck between violent armed criminals and ineffectual law enforcers. Nobody wants that.
