Concealed weapon laws do have effect. For example when the law was passed here crime did drop.

Look at DC - they have the toughest gun laws in the nation, and yet the highest crime rate. DC is living proof gun control dosen't work.

But D.C. is very different from Minnesota.

Tell me about it. Smiley

We need to make it a lot harder to illegally get a gun.  My uncle in Vermont is not going to kill someone with his gun.  But the drugged-out gangster in New York is.  We just have to take the necessary steps to prevent guns from leaking onto the streets.

Other then more police raids I see no way to stop illegal gun buys. Legalizing some drugs MAY help the problem somewhat though I doubt it.

nah, they're too damned hard to conceal.  not being able to hide it kinda takes away at least half the fun.

And for about 20 grand you can get a pistol made *entirely* of plastic, so you can get it into a federal building or aboard a plane.  Ammo, however, is a bit trickier.  Wink
