Do you think your country should ban guns like we have in the UK?<br />
<br />
Do you think it would reduce the amount of gun crime in the USA?

Americans, I think---me being one of them---think it is a no-brainer @El Kabong @Beanflicker

No matter how much 'safer' America might be (and there is no proof of it) if guns were restricted or banned, the larger issue here for Americans is that we are guaranteed the right in our constitution, and no amount of safety measures is going to trump our constitutional right.

Because ONCE YOU CURTAIL a constitutional right, then where does it stop after that?

It would be a precedent, and then the flood gates are opened, and ANY constitutional right could be taken away JUST THE SAME under the justification that it is "for the public safety" or for "the greater good", etc.

Judging from past and current gun control laws, quite simply NO. Matter of fact I do believe it would increase substantially as victims (being law abiding citizens) would be unarmed...unlike the criminals.
