If you read my post again, you might see that I said it wasn’t that simple. I said that the utopian state is impossible, just in different words. But it is natural to think as the antis do. No guns means no gun violence. What could be better than that? But impossible. Same thing as a war on poverty. It is an impossible task.
'Thinking no guns is no violence' is not sensible, and is not true. I don't even really think the antigunners believe it; I think it's really about people control, not gun control.
Perhaps the antigunners believe possessing guns makes mayhem easier, and a people lacking guns would not so readily resort to knives, bludgeons, and other non firearm weapons.
I think there's ample evidence that people would use those weapons more.
