> You can have the strictest No Gun laws in the world or in history. That just creates an excellent black market.

I think that there should be no restrictions on buying guns of any kind. People should be free to go to their nearest convenience store and get whatever they want. AK47s. Uzis, M16s, any automatic, semiautomatic assault or non-assault rifle should be available. All weapons and ammunition should be available freely and legally to anyone who wants it. The only requirement would be registering the weapon under your name with a picture ID and a fingerprint. Registration would be free and it would happen over the counter at the time of purchase of the weapon.

Then, anyone who is convicted of murder or attempted murder should get a mandatory death sentence. Armed robbery and other violent crimes committed with weapons should be capital offences too. "You can buy any weapon you want, but if you train it on another human being, then you deserve the chair." Stealing a weapon should be a capital offence too, as would using any weapon not registered under your name.

At the same time, we should legalize all drugs. Ecstasy, marijuana, amphetamines, cocaine, LSD, PCP, heroin, etc. People should be free to buy anything they want for themselves. However, if anyone sells or gives any drugs, tobacco or alcohol to anyone under the age of 21 then that person should receive a mandatory death sentence. "If you are over 21, you can zonk your brains out, but heaven help you if you give anything to anyone under 21. If you provide, you get a lethal injection."

There would be next to no black market, just as there is relatively little black market for alcohol or knives. The question is, how long before half the people of the world are dead?

To pay for the legal and health costs of freely available weapons and drugs, the government should impose a very high tax on them. If you want your goodies, you have to pay taxes through the nose, because overdoses and gunshot wounds cost money to fix, and executions don't come for free.
