Gun control advocates routinely call for banning some category of firearm or another. For a long time, it was handguns. That ship has long since sailed, though, and now gun bans are focused on so-called assault weapons.

The idea is that if you ban a gun, law-abiding citizens won’t have them and somehow that will keep criminals from having them, too.

No, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to me either.

But it seems that gun bans do one thing that should surprise no one. They make gun sales go through the roof.

More importantly they (bans) cause More/new honest firearms owners, that never considered being armed. I have changed my standard claim of 100 million honest armed Americans to 120 million which means liberal/communists are insane/delusional to think they Can disarm Americans.
