I agree with this. Washington DC was our own local grand experiment with a gun ban that started in 1976. After that, murder rates spiraled upwards well into the 1990's. Around 2000 there was a downward trend that was uninterrupted by a repeal of the gun ban in 2008. They are now on track for the lowest murder rate since 1963. A gun ban did not help DC. But instead it helped it turn into an open air drug market where just the thugs were armed.
