| Many are skeptical about the effectiveness of gun control in reducing
crime. The argument is that criminals will find the means to get guns
and that the people who will be affected by gun control will be those
who hunt. Should we sacrifice the hobby of killing animals to save human
lives? Definitely. The crime bill will reduce the number of guns produced. |

and the number of murders by first - time murderers. As banning guns reminds
us that the function of a gun is to kill and that we should be able to
live without guns. The ban will facilitate future bans. |
| Hunters may suffer, but then again, soon virtual reality will allow
them to kill as many animals as they want. |
