I have heard all of these arguments and none of them mean anything to me other than, "I want a handgun because I want a handgun, I don't care about the rest of you"
The vast majority of the rest of the world is not as fascinated with individual liberty. In many other parts of the world they value things like family and community *before* they value the individual.
The US, in legislating the personal over the collective is an anomaly.
