Let's rephrase slightly and see if this passes the smell test:
Does that make it unreasonable for a city with a very high crime rate...to say no legal handguns here?
To a significant extent, individuals who have, through their own actions, forfeited the right to arm themselves (such as being convicted of a violent felony) are responsible for the crime. Why would they be bothered by just another gun law?
I want to throw something out here and see what happens.
How do you all feel about raising the mandatory sentences for crimes where a gun is involved (robbery, assault, and worse)?
And in a similar vein, what about as gun owner who has their weapon used in a crime they didn’t commit (a kid takes a parent’s weapon from a secure locale and does harm)?
Please no flaming, no anger. I don’t own a gun, nor do I have kids, so I’m really intersted in what law-abiding gun-owners have to say.
Thanks.

Let me try rephrasing that too: "Does that make it unreasonable for a city with a very low birth rate...to say no abortions here?"
