Case in point: a meta-analysis looking into how effective gun buyback programs can be. It varies, but when applied in conjunction with other measures, and/or on a large enough scale, it can help reduce gun deaths to quite a lot. A small gun buyback program with no additional changes in gun laws might not do much, but something on the scale that Australia and New Zealand have done could easily reduce gun deaths. And we know this because that actually fucking happened IRL. I can't expect the federal government to do anything as comprehensive as them, but the results are there. Also, Houston isn't really all that blue. Even by the low standards of Texas, there's still other cities that are more blue, like Austin, El Paso, or Laredo.
