So, do you see any civilians defending themselves with guns? 1) It wouldn't be as easy for criminals to get guns. 2) It would be easier to crack down criminals, since anyone possessing a gun would be one. 3) Fewer people would have guns and that alone would make me feel a little safer. Truth be told, anyone who really wants a gun will get one, whether it be legally or illegally. I just don't think civilians need guns. Possession of fire arms can be dangerous even in a "responsible civilian's" hands. 
First of all, civilians in the United States use guns in a defensive situation 2,500,000 times a year. Civilians DO need guns. Read the works of America's founding fathers. Armed civilians defend themselves, their property, their state, and FROM tyranny within their own government. And the police aren't there to protect you. Even the courts have ruled that the POLICE HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO PROTECT THE INDIVIDUAL CITIZEN. Besides... if guns are banned... what will I play with during my free time? =( (Oh since some people are smart and want sources for the claims I make: http://www.gunfacts.info )

They technically don't allow mentally unstable. Cho (Virginia Tech murderer) slipped through a loophole that has since been closed by Virginia Law and will soon be closed by federal law. But anyway, Harris and Klebold (Columbine murderers) broke like... what... 19... 20 firearms laws getting their weapons? Cho wouldn't have been stopped by some firearm law. It probably wouldn't have affected the timing of his murders because he bought the guns months in advance. And the fact that police can't protect you means that you must protect yourself. Best method of doing so? Firearm. By resisting a criminal with a firearm you will only get harmed 6% of the time, as opposed to 25% by doing nothing, 40% by resisting with a knife, and 45% for non-violent resistance. And 76% of the time you never have to fire a shot (the cowardly criminal will run most of the time.) Gun control (of any kind) isn't the answer to crime, freedom, security or anything. It's just a type of "feel-good" legislation that politicians pass so they can say they're tough on crime or something like that. It's also a step toward a utopian and Orwellian society. Facism cannot succeed if the populace is in a position to resist with arms. Ask Hitler. He had to disarm all those dangerous criminals and terrorists (Jews, Catholics, Gays, Handicapped people, Gypsies, dissenters - all horrible folks wouldn't you agree? They shouldn't have guns!) before he could round them up and... dispose of them. Funny how a group of Jews with 6 handguns made an ass of the Germans in the Warsaw ghettos. Imagine if they were allowed to keep their personal arms? At least the 11 million people slaughtered in the Holocaust would've at least taken some o' the bastards with 'em. =( Post edited at 9:06 am on July 26, 2007 by Roc Kor

Oh that's totally not what I meant. I was talking "preventative" gun control. Like banning guns or certain types of ammo or magazines and such. Of course criminals with guns should be prosecuted heavily for posessing a firearm.
