That is the first sign there is a problem.

Most people who insist on having a gun are by definition highly likely not someone who should.

Many people have guns simply because others have guns and they fear. I think most of them would be willing to give up their gun if everybody else had to.

Guns are unnecessary unless you live in the wilderness. Keeping them in locked up, well regulated militias as the constitution requires would make more sense. You could go there and play with it, shoot at inanimate objects, etc.

ps this issue is not worth losing voters over...there are no gun bans and wont be
