After you have disarmed all of the law abiding citizens, how do you plan to even the playing field by disarming the gangs, criminals and would-be tyrants who won’t obey any law?

As with drug and alcohol prohibition, a huge black market for illegal firearms spawns a new, more sophisticated network of organized crime.

The illegal gun market explodes. Gun smuggling and black-market gun sales are now big business.

Basement machine shops are set up to make black-market guns. The majority are poorly manufactured and many are unsafe in any hands. Substandard ammunition is also manufactured in basements and garages to feed the black-market needs. Accidental gun deaths rise.

The BATF has the same success in its ‘War on Guns’ as the DEA has with the drug war — none.
