In the UK, were there is very strict gun laws, more home invasions happen while the victims are home compared to the US, because the criminals are afraid of being shot.
PS: Criminals don't obey the law so stricter gun laws will take guns from the public and result in only criminals having guns. This would undoubtedly increase crime rates.

The only problem with all your comments is...
Nobody is calling for a total gun ban. Just limitations on most assault weapons and those made for mass killing.
If you want to really have the ability of 'changing' peoples mind about the issue, you are going to have to make a argument for the action they want to take, not your made-up one.
I have plenty of guns in my home and nobody has threatened to come for them. They are not leaving my property and I don't need a concealed carry to have/use them and if I need to use them, nobody in the NRA or other org is responsible for my right to use them for self protection of my life or property.
However, those of you who went for the concealed carry, have given the government the holy grail that many of us non-nra's who fought for the anonymous ability to hold.
All of this time, you NOTHING BUT GUNS folks have been playing into others wishes against your own best self interest to fit others political motives.
Well, Good luck with that cause I can see how this is going to end.
