Why are you posting this? The US has the most gun violence of any civilized country in the world. If the logic of 'protection' held any weight at all the US would be the safest country in the world but we actually see the opposite. Sure, guns are only dangerous if you make them dangerous but there are a ton of dumb people with guns. When dumb people get pissed off they shoot people--I'm not sure why that's so hard for gun supporters to grasp.
