I never understood why people think that having the ability to kill stuff is a right and/or makes their community safer.
Answer me this..
If we all had a remotely controlled device implanted in our bodies that would kill us instantly at the push of a button...and anyone could push our button anytime they wanted too...would we be safer?

That would be valid if guns were only used to kil people.
They are used for other things, like putting dinner ON the table.
