“Homemade guns make the idea of gun control as crime control ridiculous.”

It is ridiculous, but as long as we have governments and people that feel government should be everyone’s mommy and daddy, there will be people that insist that government take guns away from individuals.

Whenever “one more rule” will solve a problem that is just due to the fallen nature of human beings, you’re drifting into utopianism.

Really, do we need anything more than “thou shall not murder”? No one tried to implement Rock Control after the first murder was committed, because they had enough sense to understand that it’s the criminal, not the object, that is the problem.
