Prohibition lasted 14 years before it was repealed and the violence created as a result was massive.
Sidebar: Politicians/lawyers partake in alcohol frequently, read books to learn about JF Kennedy, (His father made millions by bootlegging during prohibition) we still elected his son president, (JFK used LSD and Marijuana to combat his Addison's disease), LB Johnson, FDR, Martin Van Buren...you name a president and politician, look up their history. Today in DC alcohol and social events go hand in hand, accepted by all. Was prohibition effective? Even politicians went against the law...
Prohibition was not a constitutional right and that caused quite an uproar.
My point?
Let's work with the gun owners now, what the people want is to keep their guns and skip the people's' uprising over a constitutional right being taken away by Federal law. This will keep America safer.
