I actually left this comment on one of my friend's posts concerning this subject and I will share it here as well:

"Even if you ban the guns people who want to kill will find a way to buy them illegally. The entire U.S. is one big weapon factory. Even if they ban the guns and you can't get it illegally these kinds of people will find a different way to do the same. And what about the people whose guns you will take leaving them defenseless against people like this? On whose head those deaths go to? This not a gun, bomb, or knife problem.. This is a PEOPLE problem. Our society is degrading all around the world and people still worry about the gun problem. It makes no sense to me.. Solve the CAUSE-PEOPLE, and not the SYMPTOMS-GUNS. ONLY WAY TO CURE THE DISEASE IS TO CURE TO THE CAUSE OF THE DISEASE."

Like you I don't get people dropping ban the guns arguments. And, I don't get how they don't see the guns are not the problem. Problems are individuals who use them in such a horrific way. Guns or any kind of weapons never killed a person. They did not pick themselves up and killed. PEOPLE picked them up and killed others with it. People are the CAUSE of the problem and only way to fix it is to change the people. Because there will always be weapons...

Interesting topic my friend. Sorry for the long comment. I am just passionate about this topic. Have a great day as always. :)
