San Francisco and guns

I was being ridiculous, but you pointed out a system and said that if you changed one thing (whether anybody other than police are allowed to have guns) then you would become a criminal. Since that is the only thing about San Francisco necessary for you to choose a life of crime in that city, then it is the only thing keeping you from being a criminal in that city. I would like to think that such things as decency and respect for others plays a restraining role as well.

But really, I was just teasing.

Christ. Now I see what you were saying and how I was misreading it.

Well, I'll leave the post above this as it explains how I was reading your sentence.
