What if we all needed a permit to purchase gun accessories like bullets and gun powder and shells, do you think that would be a way to control guns?

Don't think so. People can make their own ammunition anyway.

Laws never stop criminals or someone determined to do damage. Not that we shouldn't have them. But for instance, hardcore drugs have been 'illegal' for countless years...yet drug trafficking/addiction has reached epic proportions.

Btw..hey you! ;-)
