So many baseless assumptions here lmao.
>We have a 3000 km border with a country run by organized crime that specializes in smuggling contraband
Mexico isn't 'run by organized crime' exactly. It's extremely corrupt, but to pretend like it's an adversary and not an ally to America is crazy. Yes, of course cartels smuggle drugs across the border, but you think they're planting drugs on immigrants, wait up to years for their claims to be accepted (or rejected) to get them into America? Or do you think they just use like, vehicles or something lol? smuggling drugs is probably far easier than you think.
>and according to most EU fans and a major political party here, controlling what goes in and out of said border would make us racist.
Delusional. Nobody says this. You're probably mean 'turning away refugees at the border is racist' which I'd say sorta. It's kinda retarded, I don't think you know just how much of the US economy is backed on 'illegal' migrants.
>You're deluding yourself if you think a ban would have more than a small impact in the US
Where do you think ILLEGAL weapons come from? Legal manufacturers, obviously. If you banned all production of guns, and started rounding up and collecting guns, the gun pool would consistently get smaller.
>We tried to ban alcohol in 1919, and as a consequence, made the mafia so rich and powerful that we had to spend the rest of the 20th century trying to get them under control.
firstly, banning alcohol is just retarded. we've drank it for all of human history in basically every country ever. no way that'd ever work.
Secondly, you can't pretend like enforcement of it was very good. many police were paid off, and they weren't tough enough on this organized crime.
>Just like with public transportation, things are very different here. What works in a country with a more servile nature and extremely well-behaved neighbors like Germany won't necessarily work in the US.
TL;DR "Europoors are SISSY CUCKS and chad freedom lovin' Americans are too freedom lovin' to have their guns taken away, plus i need a gun to protect me from NIGGERS"
Where to even begin. The US west was practically founded on the railway, 'public' transport was how you went across the country, as well as inner city travel till like, 1910's when the (((automobile))) came to be. It'd totally work in America, it's just government and automobile companies have conspired to make not using a car in America IMPOSSIBLE. leveling half of cities for car parks and large motorways.
Germans aren't 'servile' either, what an odd assumption to make. Public infrastructure has very little to do with the social attitudes of people.
And guess what? I bet if EVERYONE, rich or poor, had to ride the metro people would eventually become more friendly. Lemme blow your mind; what if Americans are so atomized because of suburbs and single family travel?
