I think the thing that scares me the most about the "ban guns" mentality, is how ignorant you have to be to not understand how easy it is to make a gun. That said I don't agree with either side of the argument/spectrum.

There are so many guns in circulation that banning them wouldn't change anything, if anything crime would increase. And that's the problem. It's far easier to get a gun illegally in America than it is in the UK. That's really what needs to be attacked, along with some better background checks especially on mental health.

just as how a person can't get hold of an Apache helicopter.
