New IS attack in Paris

[Enoch the Red]

So it looks like y'all are presenting increasingly persuasive reasons for banning handguns or severely restricting access to them, not sure if that was your intention

If your goal was to put into effect a policy that might impact gun violence, handguns would be a better place to start. I don't personally believe that it would have the desired impact, but it's certainly where it would make the most sense if you were serious about the problem. What I think would be even better would be to look into the root causes of violence, which communities are disproportionately impacted and why that is. I don't support bans on any firearm, but I also don't take people seriously who choose to focus on a weapon that is among the least likely to be used criminally.
