Which Is More Dangerous – Private Ownership of a Handgun or of Crack Cocaine?

Question by Nicholas J: Which is more dangerous – private ownership of a handgun or of crack cocaine?
How are they supposedly so different for an allegedly liberated society?
Isn’t regulating either just fear of what “might” happen???

Any legal precedence or opinions are greatly appreciated!

Answer by Conor F
Crack Cocaine, and most drugs (even the prescription ones) are more dangerous in todays world than a firearm.

Most important, Crack isn’t protected under the Second Ammendment of the United States. No matter what you can’t get around that. Everything that follows is also true, but largely redundant argumentation.

You can buy a handgun and not hurt anyone. You can use a handgun for decades and never kill. You can manufacture and sell handguns and not support terrorist organizations in the process.

crack cocaine will automatically and guaranteed start to do damage to your body as soon as you use it. What’s more, it will trigger a craving in your mind for more of the poision that’s trying to kill you.

Using a gun doesn’t fill you with an irresistable craving to go buy more guns. They don’t have rehab for gunowners.
