Gun Control

Name: Anonymous 2007-02-17 21:40

Can someone kindly provide a non-biased, definitive source showing that gun control has a negative effect? All the ones posted here are from NRA or some other obviously biased source with unbacked allegations.

One reason that gun control is wrong:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Further:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

How are we to ensure our ability to overthrow oppressive regimes without sufficient arms?  Modern arms that are capable of overthrowing a modern military-state?
