"I've seen your other proposal and though I have not said anything I think it is a poor one indeed, and hopefully will never reach the floor of the WA. And yes Tanaara not only allows 'guns' but for all Citizens owning and being trained with them - proper operation safety, and maintence - is a legal requirement. But your arguement that people have a 'right' to own guns is specious."

So banning these guns wouldn't seriuoslly reduce violent crime?!?

It probably wouldn't. Regardless of the weapon, the criminal will do what he wants to do. Whether he uses an AK-47 or a pistol doesn't really change things. It's the man behind the madness that is more dangerous than the weapon, as Tanaara so eloquently stated.

Incorrect. If a nation does not use guns, the resolution simply would not affect said nation.
EDIT-- This idea is lacking however.

That takes balls, and you've got them.
All was dark when the armies surrounded the town. There was little bloodshed as they swept in, and they quickly took control. "Success," said a communicator, "a base has been established."

The point of the WA is to create international laws on international issues. I see no reason to ban all semi-automatics and automatics from the public. You haven't given me a reason as to why it's an international issue, therefore, I find that this isn't even worth the WA's time to consider. Tell me why it's an international issue and then we'll discuss it further. Oh, and a reduction in crime doesn't count. That's not an international issue. Banning the carry of these weapons across borders without proper permits would be an international issue. Banning these weapons from the public of all WA nations is not.

Mandatory compliance? If gun smuggling is banned, then it's banned.

I have a proposal that actually allows people to own handhled guns but, I think that a proposal banning semi-automatics and automatics from the public would be better. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
