<<Second it is difficult to expect any positive effects from gun control when the surrounding states do not have similar laws>>

So, you are saying that more gun control laws lead to less gun crime, right?

Then, the inverse should hold true, that less gun control laws lead to more gun crime.

But, this is not the truth. States and cities with lenient gun control have some of the lowest gun violence rates in the Union. At the extreme is South Dakota. To carry concealed, all you need to do is own the gun. Gun crime rate is in the bottom 5 states per capita.

Here is a good sight for research.

And to think, all this time those people who have been willing to commit murder won't stoop so low as to obtain a gun illegally... I never realized this. Thanks Pezz.
