Gun ownership deters crime and it is much more difficult to quell or subjugate an armed populace, let alone one that has had a fondness for guns since inception. As for other people's affairs, I shouldn't interfere unless your well being is at stake and I do not believe you to be of sound enough mind to handle your own situation.
Also I'm curious, how do you think of guns? From yours posts I get the feeling that you believe them to be things that bring unwanted elements into the world that on the whole are unnecessary and therefore can't really justify their existence except for the amount of people that want them and your disbelief in imposing your beliefs on other people in the form of rules and regulations on how to live, and in this case, pertaining to gun ownership.
