I'm not here to talk specifics. I'm just here to talk common sense. Baseball bats and knives can kill, sure. A gun, however, will kill if used even semi correctly, without leaving the victim any chance. That is just too much power at the finger tip of a single human being to just let anybody have it. You were saying that that's not the case entirely and also suggesting that the access restrictions are not implemented well. I would agree on that, but I would add that they are simply not restrictive enough. Here in Germany, I don't know a single person on a personal level, who owns a gun. Not one. And I don't think I would feel comfortable knowing that they had one.
