How is it that a certain group of politicians think that making guns illegal will reduce gun deaths? They somehow believe that people who willingly rob homes and shoot people will suddenly start obeying the law. Do they really think that the bad guys will figure the gig is up and turn their guns in? Yes, the law abiding citizens might do so, and where will that leave them? As far as I know, heroin is illegal. How is that working out?

People dying because they are breaking the law and using illegal products. By their action they are supporting crime syndicates and illegal gangs.
Most of these users are nothing but a drain on society and costing the country thousands of dollars in judicial and incarceration costs.
I fail to see the problem. |

| Why don't they pass a law banning Heroin? You know just like murder is illegal. |

I propose a ten day waiting period for every heroin purchase, and a background check.
THAT will stop all this illegal drug use.
Oh wait... |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
