[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] [QUOTE]whether or not those are on the increase I can't say. [/QUOTE]The article said. Didn't you read it? When a ban leads to an INCREASE in crime (Like Prohibition in the US in the 1920's), then the ban is "ineffective" in the way that I was putting it. In the case of the other bans you mention, that is not the case (well, maybe with drugs, but drugs are generally more dangerous than alcohol, and their widespread use would likely cause greater problems). In the UK gun ban, however, that does seem to be the case. Ban handguns, and gun-related crime jumps 30%? That does not have the air of a resounding success. [/QB][/QUOTE]
