>Guns are not bad, people who use them are bad. Guns are pieces of metal. If they are bad, what about knives used for stabbing? What about lighters and alcahol that get people burned and killed? Besides, the idea that getting rid of guns would lower crime has been long ago proven very false. When law abiding citizens cannot carry weapons it becomes open hunting for criminals. In England crime is rampant and criminals are protected by the government.
keep in mind also that the American Revolution was partially started because King Georgie wanted citizen arms taken away. Why? Because of his greed for power and tax money from the settlers. Those of us who own guns always wonder why those who oppose us don't put out big signs saying OUR HOME IS GUN FREE! to advertise their position. Unless of course they fear something or somebody.
