As a non-American I'd be interested to know if anybody on here wants any kind of gun control what so ever. The argument that 'we' need to protect ourselves from the government can go a long way (and too me seems to be the central argument made historical for no gun control). Didn't New York ban some form of gun's and experience an immediate drop in gun related killings or am I way off.
Personally I'm middle of the road... restrictive licensing to those smart enough to write the test. That is what exists in my country and it seems a decent compromise.
