The only time a gun ban works, is when the guns aren't already in the hands of the populace. There are so many in our country, and we make so many more every year, that we will never be rid of them. All we can do is limit the sale and (hopefully) the production of the particularly nasty ones. It would be nice if we could start limiting the sales to other countries as well, but that's a different animal.
