How likely do you believe it is to bring about the constitutional amendment necessary to ban firearms? To gain support of 2/3s the states in addition to a 2/3 majority in Congress?
That aside, you could argue symptoms could be addressed through such extremes if it were possible to do so, but you couldn't argue such measures address underlying issues - solve problems.
Yeah I'm not arguing for a ban, not even for the reasons of political support; it's simply unworkable due to the "genie being out the bottle".
