It would make it much easier to move the people into the concentration camps and keep them there even when ya don't feed 'em.
It would cause more Sandy Hook style massacres.
It would create a lot more incidents where disparity of force is greatly in favor of the attacker/criminal thug/big brother thug.
Unarmed peasants are easier to control

Canadians do not have a cultural history that is intimately, intricately and deliberately tied to personal ownership of firearms, as we do.
We, on the otherhand, have a cultural history of severe distrust and dislike of government authority at all levels, from the very beginning of our nation.
Our first civil war was a result of these two basic differences.
Our second will finally decide both issues.........

We would find out that they lied to us about information not being collected in background checks.
Harvard Study: Gun Control Is Counterproductive
WOULD BANNING FIREARMS REDUCE MURDER AND SUICIDE?, A Review of International and Some Domestic Evidence by Don B. Kates and Gary Mauser, Volume 30, Number 2 of the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy (pp. 649-694)
The answer would be out of wedlock births which is now 60% in the Hispanic community and 80% in black community. Total out of wedlock is 30% for Canada and 40% for the US. Furthermore, Canada single parent home is 16% vs 27% for the US.
A better analysis would be to factor out murders committed by people of absent Dad households. Black and Hispanics disproportionately make up this group, but the analysis is less race based and more moral based. With this analysis, I would bet that the murder rates in Canada and the US are the same. This is an easy bet since an analysis of US prison population concluded it is the same among ethic groups when factoring for absent Dads.
“An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.”
Nothing productive...but it will help some people feel like they’ve got a pair.
