Europeans live by this amusing mindset that if you take away the guns you'll take away the violence. I, however, on the other hand, say that if everyone has a gun, the threat of a burglar or robber stealing your shit is going to be much lower if potentially every individual could shoot them dead if they tried something. Same with rapists
A few years ago one of my mates was talking to a girl in New York (I think) at a bar and seemed to be hitting it off, a little further down the bar a man was getting more and agitated as the evening went on, my mate didn't know why until the man came up to the girl whispered something in her ear and then left. The girl turned to my friend and said "You'd better leave now, that was my boyfriend and he's just gone to get his gun"
So my friend left at speed.
The moral of the story, if any arsehole can own a gun any arsehole will.
And there is nothing more dangerous than an arsehole with a gun, except maybe shark infested custard.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
