If you prescribe a medicine to a sick patient, and the patient gets worse, so you prescribe more medicine, and then he gets even worse, how many times will you continue to increase the dosage of the medicine, even in the face of a continually worsening patient, before you abandon that medicine and try something else?

The sickness is violence and the medicine is gun control. The places that are the most violent - the sickest - are not coincidentally the ones with the strictest gun control. You advocate making gun control even stricter, never mind the obvious failure of so many rounds of it before, to cure those places of violence. Look at Britain - the gun control they have there, and the recent trends in violent crime there. You still think more gun control, even stricter that the British already have it, is the solution?
