wonder what those rates would be with lax gun control laws[QUOTE="Abbeten"][QUOTE="hartsickdiscipl"]
Look at the murder and shooting rates. Don't be dense.

Probably the same since the majority of gang related violence is committed with unregistered firearms, and gang related violence makes up the vast majority of large city gun crimes.
Remember buying a registering a gun is expensive and they have you on file. Buying an unregistered gun from the same guys that move drugs and other illegal items is cheaper and nobody has record of the gun. Most criminals who have an intent on using firearms in a crime are not going to buy the gun from a licensed dealer.
Thank you for this. That means that those who commit most gun crimes are not going to be affected by stricter gun control. Therefore, it would be wasted, and actually detrimental. Those who would buy guns through legal means for self-defense and/or hunting would become easier victims for the real criminals. It's such a simple concept.
