Hey Buck,

I respectfully continue to disagree. Lawful gun owners aren't sent to
prison; criminals are. Criminals who use guns get longer sentences
than those who don't use guns. That's because of gun control laws.
It's easier to get a gun than a driver's licence in NY, so I don't see
how NY's gun control laws are much of a hindrance.
I understand what you're saying (have you checked NYC laws lately?).
As I noted earlier, you and I are probably talking about different gun
control laws. I posted the laws that govern me; perhaps the laws
governing you are more draconian, I don't know. All I can say is that
it's pretty easy to legally get a gun here, and I don't follow the
argument that gun control laws have made it difficult to legally own
and use a gun.
I'm _not_ saying that most current gun laws are restrictive or
coercive. (although, in some places they are very much both) I'm
saying more gun laws will be. owning a gun is not the problem, it's
making guns useful in a lawful fashion that i believe the gun control
lobby has in mind.
