That should lessen violence, too.
Don't blame the tools - blame the idiots that use them improperly.

We do blame the idiots who misuse guns. But the problem that many have is that the only purpose a gun serves is to either hurt or kill someone (unless you use your gun exclusivly for entertainment at the range), and lots of people have a problem with this.
PS. we are talking about handguns here, not rifles, or shotguns that do serve a legitimate purpose in society.
