Do you realize what you're saying?
In part, you are using the fact that people -defended- themselves as the rationale for stripping them of the means to do so!
"You lot killed violent criminals who were attempting to prey upon you. Therefore, you must be disarmed, lest these violent predators come to further harm."
Un-be-friggin-lieveable.
According to John Lott's research, in addition to that of Univ. of Florida researcher Gary Kleck, firearms are used in self-defense about 2,000,000 times per year in the US. That's 2,000,000 more violent crimes per year that would have occurred -without- the presence and use of these defensive weapons.
You, sirrah, are advocating that those 2,000,000 violent crimes be -allowed- to take place! This may not have been your original intent, but empirical data demonstrates that it -will be- and -is- the result of such policies, wherever they are enacted.
