One of the reasons the ban on guns here is ineffective is simply that the ban
is not enforced. Walk around SE and the close in portions of NE any evening
and you'll see people carrying guns openly with no fear of arrest. Don't
misunderstand -- not all those guns are used to kill, or are even ever fired.
But they are there, and the fact that they can be there without consequences
despite the law against them makes it easier for an angry impulse to become a
killing. It would be interesting to see what would happen should a ban such
as ours really be enforced.
