I did as well but this discussion has been taken to so many places that I wanted that to be cleared up.So then are we talking about banning all guns, rifles and pistols?
I think that is what this thread is about. Although I think the major problem (crimewise) would be the handguns. I mean if you show up to a gang shootout with a hunting rifle, that'S cool with me, but the odds are not in your favour.
Strategies to reduce the number of guns in private hands that include mandating a maximum one-gun-per-person rule;
A ban on possession of handguns by anyone other than government officials and target shooters who would be forced to store their weapons at shooting ranges;
Worldwide licensing of firearms registered in a vast U.N. computer bank.
As per the second article posted in the first post. The bolded letters are something that everyone should be aware of, why does the UN need to track and identify woldwide owners of firearms (this is both pistols and rifles.) This should be the real item we especially in the US should be concerned about. Why do they need to track this on a global level in a central information bank?

So that criminals can be found throughout the world?
I think its safe to say that criminals aren't purchasing their weapons from someone who will identify and track the purchase of the fire arm for legal purposes.
Lol yes I could see it now, local authorities being given access to U.N. records to scoure their precinct for criminals that have registered their newly purchased fire arms, not so much.

Well, maybe the illegal gun ownership should be fought......

It's easy, you have a gun you go to jail....if you don't follow the rules you will be punished...I was under the impression this was the case in the US as well.
Yes, it is, there is a charge called 'possesion of an illegal weapon'. It's illegal. And yet peope are getting the illegal guns anyway. What does that tell you?
I also like how my last post was ignored.

Well for some reason it seems to work in Germany and the rest of Europe and not in the US...any ideas as to why?

Yes actually, like I said in my last post, it's too easy to get an illegal weapon ere, you'd have to stop the manufacturing. underground arms dealing is HUGE here, especially in the big cities

Maybe, however tracking and monitoring the legal purchase of fire arms doesn't have anything to do with the illegal purchasing of said items because they aren't recorded and therfore not tracked.
