We abuse and kill each other. Killing and injuring humans through the use of guns is only a symptom of this, but it is something relatively simple and tangible to control. The banning of guns will not solve all our problems. It is only a portion of what plagues our society. It is a step toward peace.
Guns make violence too easy and simple.
By removing guns you make it harder to injure and kill others. It will still happen, but it will dramatically decrease. It is worth it to save thousands of lives. The second amendment of the Constitution does not justify the carnage that is now occurring in this country. It was written in an age when firearms were necessary for protection and survival.
