Remove the guns and you are back to knife and fist fights, less death and way less risks of innocent by standers to get it.

I understand your views are skewed, but mine aren't. I was a firearms instructor for years, along with teaching many different forms of personal protection, so I know what I'm talking about.
Like many other things, all that anyone focuses on are the negatives. For every gang member or whatever that uses a gun for bad, 10 people use them for good. Headlines like, "Local man uses his firearm in a safe and uneventful manner" don't really draw a large reviews.
My point is simple, guns don't make people violent or aggressive, they are simply the tool that are used by violent or aggressive people. I know countless people that have never needed or used their guns for any purpose besides a nice day at the shooting range. I also know countless people, people that I instructed, who have used their guns to protect their families.
If you would like to continue to use guns as a scapegoat for the worlds problems, it's ok, but if just educated yourself on the subject rather than just following the headlines and masses of the antigun crowd, you might just learn a thing or two about a thing or two.
