Banning guns at all would be a civil rights violation. The 2nd Amendment confers a civil right upon U.S. citizens - the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Race has nothing to do with it.

Yeah it's as stupid as the premise of this thread even if the statistics support the above statement.

As usual dumbass liberal gungrabbers picking the easy fruit versus dealing with the disease.
The scary part is that is what anti gun Bloomberg proposed, banning black males from owning a gun.

"Get guns out of the hands of young male minorities". Yup I seem to remember that quote somewhere.

DUI deaths are down not because of laws but because of the increase in safety standards in automobiles. Of course this comes at the cost of money and pollution as it makes cars heavier, which requires more gas.

Not to mention almost all of the laws punished illegal action. Not the lawful drinking of any alcohol of choice. Gun laws want to punish all gun owners when conducting legal business, not just those that break the law.

Are people still pushing for gun laws like magazine limits? Because it would be kinda like limiting beer cans to 6oz to reduce DUI deaths.

And assault rifle bans would be like coozie bans.
