When a person like myself feels unsafe and capable of causing damage out of self-defense, then as a society we need to pay incredible attention to who has guns. Possessing guns is a totally ridiculous notion. Putting weapons in the hands of people known beings of irrational split decisions of rage and aggression is a far cry from solving the problem of safety. Besides the violence and destruction caused by the people who use guns to vent their anger or emotion, there are also the countless incidents that are caused by accidents. There is no way to control what people will do with their personal weapons, and so they shouldn't be permitted at all.
Guns solve nothing.
