No. Banning guns is not an effective solution to decreasing crime in which guns are used. All banning guns dose is remove law abiding citizens ability to defend themselves and turn law abiding citizens into felons. I live in Missouri, a state that just passed a bill that outlaws all federal laws limiting and infringing the second amendment, I own multiple firearms and so do my friends, family, neighbors as well as a great majority of the people in my town, there is very little violent crime, little to no robberies or muggings. even if the federal and state governments attempted to ban guns and confiscate them from the citizens of the united states there would me serious retaliation which would most likely result in massive casualties. the second amendment and the peoples right to keep and bear arms is something that will never be taken away from those who seek to live safely and freely.
