>> Chicago has a unique violence problem...but in any case, it makes no sense to me to leave gun control in the hands of the states....the result is that we have states with strict controls and little chance of enforcement, partly because the problem has become overwhelming and partly because of liberal gun laws in neighboring states.

Al, what do you see as the downside if we get this wrong? If we ban various weapons, tighten controls on items that in fact do not have a positive effect? Is there then no harm done in your opinion? (Discounting, of course, the results in other places of violence actually increasing as a result).
