The point is that if someone goes insane, and wants to kill someone, he'll use any tool at his disposal.

You're right, if someone snaps they will use any tool at their disposal. But of all the tools available to them, why make guns so easily accessible? Why make their job easier? I would rather have a psychotic person come after me with a knife than a gun. Someone who snaps and decides to shoot up a school will do a lot less damage with something other than a gun.
