Gun Rights and Noncompliance: Two Problems of Prohibition
Via comment by Avraham on Florida school shooting hero blames sheriff, super…
Most of my fellow academics seem to harbor a visceral antipathy toward guns. Many, perhaps most, would like to see all private gun ownership outlawed. I think this position is not well
grounded, either in empirical evidence or in moral principle. If we followed the lessons that we or at least, the social scientists among us try to teach our students, we would not be so confident of the benefits of gun restrictions.
If we traced the implications of the moral principles we accept in other contexts, we would not be so quick to dismiss the rights of gun owners. Like most controversial issues, the issue of gun control is highly complex, and it is commonly treated in a sadly oversimplified manner. I can’t fix that problem here though I have discussed the issue at greater length elsewhere.
Here, I will address only what seem to me the two most important arguments concerning the simplest and most extreme form of gun control, which would be a complete ban on private gun ownership. The first argument is that gun prohibition would violate the right of individuals to protect themselves. The second argument is that gun prohibition will fail because criminals will disregard.
