All guns should be surrendered and destroyed en masse. They are fun, but society would be happier, healthier, and with far less suicides and DA without them.
I’ve seen too many close calls to consider them safe for society at large.
Edit: People who have to deal with the public who might be armed don’t do it with a gun in their hand, they do it behind bulletproof glass. The odds that a given gun is going to shoot a bad guy moments before the bad guy shoots a good guy are a fraction of the odds that that same gun will be used to accidentally kill a child.
If you think they would be the consequence of banning and removing guns from society, you can test this theory by looking at any country which has already done this. What you find is that gun violence is extremely minimal in these countries. So turns out your worries are over nothing!

Go back to swords.
It boggles my mind people can bear a device that can end lifes in an instant and feel like they are fun. I guess this is making my unpopular opinion.
I mean people have fun with many things which are dangerous. Fireworks are dangerous, rock climbing is dangerous, driving is dangerous.
I’m strongly anti-gun, but I’m willing to admit they are fun.
Wouldn’t that be nice?
But the truth would be: someone will find a way to make guns on their own, then the rest of us would be defenseless against that.
This is the reason why militaries have nuclear weapons despite wanting peace.
Guns don’t defend against guns.

Knife does?
Someone where I live was charged with 3D printing a gun. I believe he got jail time
this is legal just about everywhere in the usa.
Which exactly proved my point. You can make your gun at home.
If you see one getting caught, imagine how many at large.
That sounds like FUD. Intentional?

And you know who protect such society? That’s right, folks with guns!
Militaries having guns is a very different thing to the general population having guns.
Quoting the original comment directly.
This does not say the militaries can have it.
