More likely law abiding citizens. If we totally got rid of "all" guns, this sort of thing would never happen. /s

That’s hard to believe because Cook County has some of strongest gun control laws in the nation.

Regarding a recent shooting in New Orleans: There was a post on the NOLA (New Orleans) website from a liberal saying that exact thing.... if we banned all guns, there’d be no gun crimes. Talk about naivete.

That's probably less than average.
