Harry points out the fallacy that more laws mean more safety. I understand their desire to make the world safer for their children. There already are 20,000 federal gun laws and regulations on the books. Instead, we need to recognize that those 20,000 laws are a principal cause of the current violence in society. By definition, law-breakers don't obey laws.
Hardened criminals do whatever is necessary to evade identification and arrest.
Thus the gun-control laws don't apply to criminals or stop gun violence. In other words, gun-control laws make the world safer for criminals and less safe for you. Stripping Away your Safety Let's take a brief look at how the various kinds of gun-control laws make you more vulnerable. Although safety locks might prevent a child from accidentally firing a gun, they also can slow you down when you need a gun in a hurry to defend yourself. Imagine a woman attacked by a rapist in a parking lot.
