Unfortunately, criminals don't care if guns are illegal. That being said, there should be sensible restrictions on specific types of firearms everywhere, in my opinion. I like guns, but I'm certainly no gun-nut. And it makes me a little hopeful to see them taking such swift action in response to this horrendous incident. I'm not sure what it will accomplish, but I'm also not sure how many shootings like this NZ has even had.
I think people should be allowed to have basic handguns, shotguns and rifles. But when you start getting into wanting an AR-15 or an M4 with a 100-round drum, laser sights and flashlights, etc. etc... I have to ask... why the hell would anyone need that, ever?
But the NRA here throws around too much money for these types of questions to ever be seriously asked in the US and it's a shame.

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
