I would be personally unaffected by a gun ban as well. I sold mine a couple of years ago because I never had time to go shooting anymore. I don't disagree that a gun in the wrong hands is very dangerous and potentially deadly. So is alcohol when you consider how many people drink and drive and essentially make their car a deadly weapon. I've found very few supporters of a gun ban feel the same way about banning alcohol. (Not that I support that, I'm just pointing out there are plenty of irresponsible people out there who kill innocent people without guns)
Edit: I totally agree about assault weapons. Even as a gun owner I see no need for those to be available to anyone except military and police.
