The right to bear arms

you are missing the point - criminals rely on legally obtained weapons, your average thug doesn’t buy his guns from a russian arms dealer. he gets it from his neighbour who “lost” his 3rd legally bought firearm. you make it easier for people to buy guys legally, you make it that much easier for criminals to get them. i mentioned mexico because in mexico, it is almost impossible for a civilian to buy a gun. the criminals pay big money to risk smuggling legally bought american guns.

I see your point Queer but I am still not convinced. 75% of the illegal passports in 3rd world countries come from a legal owner selling his passport to a human smuggler, who changes the picture or what not to use it illegally. Does that mean that now we should strip the right of having a passport from regular citizens?

How about addictive pain killers, that get sold by real patients to a dealer? Should we stop treating patients then?

Taking legal rights away so criminals cannot take advantage of them, is unfair to the lawful public.
