120. Am I reading you correctly in thinking you want handguns banned because they are popular?

Regarding handguns I'm somewhat ambivalent, but am leaning more and more towards a ban, mainly because of what I have been reading in this forum. The fervor of the pro-gunners is truly disturbing. I never had a problem with handguns in the past, but all this concealed carry nonsense and taking them to school is so over the top.

If you could show the expanding practice of concealed handgun carriage is harmful, you might have had a point- but you can't,

as (so far) the opposite has been the case. And since that is so, I'd have to place you in the 'moral harm' school of gun control...
