and you yankies wonder why it's more likly that you'll be shot than die from pretty much anything else...........................
personally I can see a reason for hunting rifles and shotguns. They are LARGE, clumsy and require some skill to use. Skill requires you to think a bit, and if you're thinking then maybe you won't kill someone without a second thought. They also have a legitimate sporting purpose.
The constitution of the USA allowed people the right to bear arms to be able to resist foreign powers from controlling you. It was not a right given to protect yourself - it was there for political self determination. Rifles and shotguns more than fullfil this purpose.
Handguns on the other hand, belong ONLY in the hands of the police. There is NO legitimate reason for ANY private citizen to own a handgun. NONE - ZERO - ZILCH.
Even medical doctors are calling handguns a helath risk. People who own handguns are 4X as likly to commit suicide and 2X as likey to commit murder (not self defense, and that's LEGAL gun owners)
