And that ordinance was later tossed out by the courts as unconstitutional, when someone finally lived to challenge it instead of being murdered by a thug with a badge.
Wyatt Earp was a thug that happened to have talked someone into giving him a badge. The fight at the OK Corral, contrary to popular belief, was not a face-off between lawmen and a ruthless gang. Instead, it was a shootout between 2 gangs which some idiot reporter decided to romanticize. From most accounts, Earp and Co. ambushed the Clantons with no warning.
Using Wyatt Earp as an example of how gun control should work is a lot like using Al Capone as an example of how to run a liqour distributor.
And much less people, go figure, desolate places have less violence than crowded mega cities, I wonder why?
It's the gun laws, hehehehehe
Since the police response is much slower in more rural areas, and since no one would often even hear a criminal assaulting an innocent person...why would there be less violence? What is it about urban areas that makes people violent?
Wyatt and his brother were the biggest thugs of all. They just did not want any competition or the posibility of being shot by someone they had harmed.
I wouldn't call disarming KNOWN thugs, killers and wild six gun bandits the same thing.
Practically NONE of those men could own under 2013 laws and regulations.
