Anti gun rights people believe the opposite. :-)

As ironraven inferred, this statement comes from nowhere and doesn;t express an opinion (unless it's meant to mask yours). It's also untrue in my experience. People who are "pro gun(?)" don;t fight a ban because "bans don;t work". THe fact that they don;t work is known and relatively well documented, and is a side issue. THey don;t want guns banned because our Constitution doesn;t give any governmental law-making entity any right to ban them or otherwise make them illegal. It's stupendously simple...

As I said before, murder, robbery, rape, etc., if they were made legal (and don;t forget hate-free bludgeoning), would make alot of people's lives "easier".....not their consciences, mind you, just their "lives". Of course, it would make alot more people's lives a tad more difficult, now wouldn;t it? Sometimes laws and rules become difficult to enforce, and people without conviction would like to see laws repealed, simply because they can't handle controversy, hard work, and dedication.

Drugs haven't disappeared because they're banned, but neither have murder or bank robbery.
