I've already explained the fact that because drugs are ILLEGAL and you cannot obtain them legally, it makes for a strong black market. The same thing will happen with guns here in America.
As I already pointed out, we do not see this phenomenon occurring in japan, where drugs are readily available but guns are not. This is likely because how profitable drugs are, how small profitable quantities are, the fact that they are a consumed good, and in developed nations, have a larger market than illegal guns.
They will find a way to get them regardless.
Yet we have not seen such in Japan ...
And yes, if guns were ever outlawed, that would CERTAINLY strengthen the black market for them.
yet that did not happen in Japan
We are not Japan. We are not an island nation. Our borders are NOT secure. We have a MUCH bigger population and our Constitutional rights make us unique.
Smuggling occurs in japan ...
A VERY interesting perspective here. I encourage you all to read this.
it just repeats the same arguments you have repeatedly failed to defend
