99.9% of legal gun owners never use their weapons to commit crimes. Why should we punish them because of some idiots? That's like saying Islam should be banned because some of them are terrorist.
You can have my gun, when you pry it from my cold dead hands.
If you think you can take away the 80 million+ privately owned firearms in this country, your incredibly naive. Most cops in this country are pro-gun, and a number have already stated they wont enforce a ban. Most of the military is also pro-gun, but they cant be used on American soil anyway, due to the Posse Comitatus act. Plus if you kill us all, you have less people to tax.

but accidents and misconception which can happen to anyone,
needless to say,
anyone who has a gun can make a mistake,
nobody is perfect, any senario could happen,
not to mention someone in the home loosing the plot weather dementia from old age or some personality crisis like the young boy in the school shooting.
Personally the bible makes it clear,
those using the sword will perish by the sword.

If were going off the bible, Jesus told his followers to carry swords, and if they could not afford one, to sell their cloaks to buy one.
Like I said though, what the anti-gun people forget is confiscating guns in this country would be a logistical nightmare (I could care less about the gun laws of other country's.)
