(222 posts)"The absence of guns does not correlate to lower gun violence rates, i.e. pre-Heller/McDonald DC and Chicago. Nor does gun law laxity correlate in higher gun violence rates, i.e. Vermont."
You almost certainly know that most of the guns that were used in pre-Heller DC came from outside the District, right? What do you propose the people of the District of Columbia do about this influx of guns? What are you willing to do about it? You guys love to smirk about how gun laws don't do any good and then point to the poor schmucks who have to put up with gun violence that originates from outside their city. Do you blame the people of DC for not wanting even MORE guns in the city, forced by the Supreme Court to allow strangers to carry among them?
And what about the rates of lower gun violence in other developed countries that restrict gun ownership? Don't trot out Vermont, the 49th least populous state in the U.S. to prove your unprovable point.
One would think a bright person like you would understand that you're just blowing smoke.
