I'm sure you chose a country overrun with drug violence and ready access to American firearms with little gun control enforcement purely by coincidence, as if a 9 year old couldn't spot the problem with that reasoning. Hey, guns are illegal in Libya!*
*Kindly pay no attention to the relative effectiveness of real gun control regulation in every single country not engaged in drug/military/religious war. |
My point is that Pandora's box is already open... If you think that making them illegal would actually remove them from circulation I'm afraid you are mistaken.

so the entire state of Texas is not as safe as an extremely protected and policed isolated location, I'm baffled. how can this be?
If Mexico loses US tourism those areas completely collapse, you could make that argument about many, many places in South America and the Caribbean. You go to the vacation spot and that's it, you dont leave.
for all these statistics about where is safe and where isn't, America is, not surprisingly, an extremely safe place provided you aren't a criminal, live with or affiliated with one. |

It's already been done in many countries (including this one to some extent). Ignorance does not preclude viability. |
