Not true. Several of my neighbours have guns.

For example, you have the highest rate of gun violence of all countries located between Canada and Mexico, but you have the lowest rate of gun violence among countries where people call themselves 'Americans'.

Under what conditions can you own guns?
My read on it is you have to "have reason" - and self defense is not considered to be a reason.
You can have them for hunting, sport shooting, and if you're a licensed security person. You're correct - self defense, in and of itself, is not considered sufficient reason to have a firearms license.
