      Are you that naive? I am saying that is an inevitability.

      When people refuse to surrender weapons, what do you suppose the step after that is? Arresting someone for not turning in their weapon; which will lead to several violent encounters. This will create additional loss of life, and I thought that was the problem we need to solve.

        Then do it. Few losses here and there than perpetual cycle of deaths, naive guy.

          I’m not going to go around collecting weapons from people door to door, and it’s beyond fucked up to try to force someone else to do that. Anyone that suggests for someone else to put their life in danger should be compelled to do the same. You sound like a fucking psycho.

            Your reasoning for not removing the guns is that it will lead to gun violence. You think they are going to knock on your door? If it ever would come to that, if laws get changed and having assault rifles becomes outlawed I imagine you would get a few ‘friendly requests’ to bring them in - just like they did in Australia. If you still don’t - you’re a criminal and should be treated accordingly. I’m sure the government can handle a few nuts with guns who they don’t want to give up.

            This will create additional loss of life, and I thought that was the problem we need to solve.

            There’ll be less blood than a few weeks of school shootings.

            But keep making up new problems

              If you still don’t - you’re a criminal and should be treated accordingly.

              You’re almost there… what do you think the implications of this statement are? How does the US treat criminals? What does the US do to pursue and arrest criminals? Shit… how does the US treat mis-identified people asleep in their own beds during no-knock raids?

              Keep working your way through this, you might actually get there!

              There’ll be less blood than a few weeks of school shootings.

              And now you’re making up outcomes.
