Why not ban Governments from arms as well....

Who gave the divine right for governments to
kill whomever they pleased??

Your government's policies kill 500,000 children
and you are told it's worth it...and you believe
it.

Your president sends his drones and kills hundreds
of innocent children,he certainly doesn't get
up on stage for them and shed a few crocodile tears.....they are just collateral damage,it's
worth it & you believe it.

You kill hundreds for your country,you are
decorated a Hero.....& you all believe it.

Face it....you have no thoughts or morals
other than the thoughts and morals your
government has told you to have....some call
it brainwashed?

i think the history of the us wild west gives us a data point in seeing what happens when guns are everywhere.

it wasn't a society remembered for its peace and sense of security.

"Old West cattlemen themselves also saw the need for gun control. By 1882, a Texas cattle raising association had banned six-shooters from the cowboy's belt. "In almost every section of the West murders are on the increase, and cowmen are too often the principals in the encounters," concurred a dispatch from the Texas Live Stock Journal dated June 5, 1884. "The six-shooter loaded with deadly cartridges is a dangerous companion for any man, especially if he should unfortunately be primed with whiskey. Cattlemen should unite in aiding the enforcement of the law against carrying of deadly weapons.""
