What does the evidence say? I'd bet that taking guns away leads to less gun deaths.

It's weird that nobody banged on about gun rights until the black panthers did.

Not shit sherlock. But taking guns away doesn't lower homicide rates. Odd that you can reduce gun deaths but not reduce deaths overall isn't it?... At this point we're talking in circles. I've covered this so many posts ago with you.

Not sure how this is even remotely relevant.

What's the point of bringing this up in this conversation? How is this relevant to ANYTHING we're discussing?

We're talking about gun control
