Guns were designed to kill people. I've only known one person in my life here in Vancouver who has owned a gun, and it was a long rifle he used for hunting. I no friends, no family, no one I have ever known has ever been in any situation where they would need a gun. I understand the US is alot more violent, so owning a gun could make you feel safer. And it doesn't help that so many bad guys in the US are armed, using guns they either stole from a house, or bought from someone who stole the gun from a house. It's a vicious circle. The more legally owned and registered guns there are in the US, the more illegally owned (and most likely stolen) guns there will be.
