This is such a foolish argument....anyone who even lives remotely near an area where they have gangs(virtually any sizable urban area) needs to be able to legally own a gun. Why should any civillized human be a helpless victim to some primitive, unevolved, violent simian-brained savage who will always be able to obtain weapons even if they are illegalized. Believe me, if one of these types attemped to car jack me or "done bust a cap in my a.." I would not hesitate to use my smith and wesson model 29 and blow his mindless head..clean off. In fact, it would be extremely enjoyable.
