If everybody had guns then everybody could defend themselves against maniacs and psychopaths that want to cause harm to yourself or other people. Pretty simple concept is it not? Some killer with mental illness and violence would be put down in the act.

Sure, just like if all countries had nukes whenever a rogue country decided to blow up another country everyone else could blow up the rogue country. So pretty simple, the world is a better place if everyone has nukes.

If guns are hard to get access to then why make it easy by letting everyone have the? Again this doesnt really count for america because everyone and their dog has a gun.

It is simple. Some people believe humans are good. Others believe humans are born evil and should never be trusted. If you own a way to defend yourself you believe it is because you are bad. What most logical human beings here are trying to tell you is... Bad people do no need guns to harm you because they are bad people.

Yes. The world is better place because a lot of nations have nuke.

You said everyone and their dog has a gun. By dog did you mean female dog? A knife cannot save a woman against a man twice her size. A gun put her on equal level. The gun is the ultimate equalizer for women.

You already knew all of this. Sadly you'll need to experience this terrible truth yourself or by one of your loved ones to understand. Something I do not wish upon you.

The KKK began as a gun-control organization. Before the Civil War, blacks were never allowed to own guns. During the Civil War, blacks kept guns for the first time either they served in the Union army and they were allowed to keep their guns, or they buy guns on the open market where for the first time theres hundreds of thousands of guns flooding the marketplace after the war ends. So they arm up because they know who theyre dealing with in the South. White racists do things like pass laws to disarm them, but thats not really going to work. So they form these racist posses all over the South to go out at night in large groups to terrorize blacks and take those guns away. If blacks were disarmed, they couldnt fight back.
