Default Re: People have too many rights

Education is key. In NJ it is very tough to get a gun, in PA it is easy. I am not sure what they do on the background checks or what the Red Flags not to sell are. Mine took 5 minutes and I was a little scared that I could buy a gun that quick. I wonder what the proven gun regulations are that actually have been shown to prevent crimes and save lives. Does a waiting period actually work? Are more crimes committed with illegal firearms than legal ones? I dont know, but as gun control becomes tighter, as I predict will happen in the future (I mean they wont even sell certain violent video games in walmart), the regulations need to be proven effective methods that actually work, not just making it illegal to own a gun to protect your home and family.

I wonder what are effective methods to controlling crimes with firearms. Does anyone know any that have been proven effective?
