I don't think we should ban guns outright, I'm just for better gun safety and gun control. We should have better background checks for firearm purchases, crack down on illegal sales (personally, i'd much rather see a "war on guns"- illegal assault weapons and legal but unlicensed handguns on the black market - than the "war on drugs"). There is new technology being worked on where a gun will only fire for its true owner; steps like these look very promising.
A gun, in the right hands, can be a good thing. If a person uses and stores it responsibly, it can save lives.
