What Would Happen if the Dems Win?

Name: Anonymous 2006-08-01 23:59

Supposing the dems win, and win solidly, taking firm control of the government for a while into the future, what might happen?

Just a sample:

"More importantly, it makes no exception for the use of a firearm for self-defense."

So I guess if some guy breaks into your home, it would be illegal to shoot him.

The point is that there really hasn't been any explicit links between being pro-gun and having a low crime rate or vice-versa.  I'm not questioning that guns can stop crimes in the act (believe me, I know they do).  What I question is the claim that guns stop crimes from occuring in the first place.  There are simply too many changed variables between the low population rural areas and the high population urban areas to just say "guns did it!"  Guns are efficient tools for protecting yourself and family, but too many people treat them like magical crime stopping elixirs.
