so when the bad guys have guns, it makes sense for the good guys to have some too
also a weapon is a form of self defense
also a firearm does not kill someone 100% of the time

1. If you're going to make an argument about the law of supply, you should also take into account the law of demand. Higher prices will make business profitable, and therefore more people will get in on the action, increasing the supply. According to the laws of supply and demand, when supply increases but demand remains constant, prices fall.At best the prices would only work as a deterrent temporarily, until an equilibrium is reached. While the prices will likely still be slightly higher in the end, it won't be enough to deter black market sales, not by anything significant.
Professor Bright said Australia's illegal firearm problems not only needed policing solutions, but also directed action to change embedded culture and behaviour.He pointed towards a Queensland government-funded program designed to help men leave the criminal life as an example."The task is: How do you make firearms less appealing to young men? How do you provide young men with alternative dispute resolution strategies that don't involve having guns?" Professor Bright said."How do you provide opportunities for men currently in the criminal life to get out of it if they want to?"
The idea that the gun violence problem in Australia is a product of cultural issues mirrors exactly what I was saying about how gang culture in the US is responsible for so many of our gun deaths.
