Guns are made for one purpose, and that purpose is to kill.
I believe that guns are not weapons, they are tools. How they are used is up to the person holding it.
Guns are especially dangerous in the hands of people who don't know how to use them (i.e., kids and teenagers) as well as those who are mentally ill and/or have a temper problem.
Gun control will not stop violence because a violent person doesn’t need a gun to be violent.
After the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, support for gun control increased dramatically.

Generally in America, the support for gun control has outweighed the support for gun rights.
Are gun control laws constitutional?
What would be your ideal set of laws regarding firearms?




It seems to me the ideal solution is to prohibit any sale of weapons. let's dismantle all of them on pieces and build one huge monument dedicated to the peace.

This will only happen in one of two ways:
1. The people who own guns voluntarily give them up;
2. The people who are making the peace by doing this have more and bigger guns so that they can force it... which defeats the whole idea right there.

Violence and fighting have always happened, long before guns were invented.

A 250 pound muscle-man can easily overpower and kill a 90 pound granny. But if Granny has a gun, she has a chance.

Having peace is best. But it will never happen in a big way. This means that having guns is better. Individual gun control is the best idea.
