I have a simple solution. I am OK with putting to death any criminal that uses a hand gun in a felony. This saves everyone trouble and grief. The taxpayers will not have to worry about paying for criminals. The law abiding citizen has zero to fear from this. But I will bet that PieceLessPeace will oppose this.
Guns are inanimate objects. ONLY governments and criminals use them injure people. Accidents happen on rare occasion. We already have laws against suicides, how well do those work? Last I checked it was illegal to commit a crime with a weapon, period, yet we have plenty of crime.
As to Rights being usurped by government, as Danton said "Man has the rights he can defend". That is the PRIMARY reason for the Second Amendment. Hunting and crime are secondary reasons for it. The socialists/communists always will want a disarmed citizenry, it makes theft easier, and it makes sticking a bayonet in their backs to get them to work for someone else's benefit easier. Ask Hitler, Stalin or Mao if they favored armed citizens...
