No (D). At this point, so many people own and use guns in non-criminal ways that banning them would effectively result in the creation of a massive black market for guns, simply because people won't be willing to give them up. And the result of that will be the United States sending more people into our already needlessly over-sized prison population.

My position on guns is: Have a system to ensure that they don't fall into the wrong hands, but don't ban them.

there already is a black market for guns, mainly due to lax federal restrictions.

criminals buy the guns in southern states then bring them to northern cities to re sell.
