“So gun violence would be zero if it were illegal to own a gun?” “Repealing the 2nd amendment is not going to stop people from using guns in the commission of crimes.”
If the second amendment was done away with, then it would be legal to take people’s weapons - everyone’s weapons; every time a weapon was used, it would be destroyed. Eventually, just like England (with one exception), there would be no weapons in the country. That was the gist of Rove’s statement.
My son has lived in England for over 25 years. The only weapons there belong to “gentlemen” who own a lot of property, an estate - they are allowed to have a hunting rifle and he has been to such an estate and gone hunting with these “gentlemen”.
See my post #186.
There’s a message being sent.
The only LEGAL firearms, perhaps. But there are still a lot of firearms, and a nearly uncountable number of weapons.
