junor, "all handguns out of the public hands" are you crazy? Are you aware that people who live out in the country use guns for things other than hunting? What would you suggest do if a six foot rattlesnake showed up on your back porch? Just because someone accidentally shot themselves does not mean all guns should be taken away. Are you anti-vehicle as well? People accidentally kill people while driving. I urge you to research how well probition has worked in the past.

Junor is an idiot. That is just what we need...more government. We have the right to bear arms!
