Is banning weapons such a good thing? - page 7.

Considering the current events I'm beginning to question the ban of weapons in the population...
I'm not talking about a country where there are weapons and you ban them, cause that doesn't work (bad guys don't just hand out their weapons) but about a country where weapons are banned and could be unbanned.

Here are the pros and cons I see in a country with ban on weapons:

-Pros

Lower murder rate because knife are less deadly
Less or even no mass shootings and no accidents like "4 year old killed brother playing with dad weapon"
Less police kills because policemen don't have to be paranoid as 99% of criminals don't have guns

-Cons

You're completely at the mercy of your government. You can't do anything against it as angry as you can be
You have to rely solely on state police, which can be great but only if it's efficient

Problem to me is that the submissive state of the population is really a huge red flag. When I see how powerless European citizens are currently...
When you got riots government just increase number of policemen...

Would you support freedom of weapons trade in a European country without weapons? Considering freedom of trade doesn't mean without huge regulations of course.
