No, wait, throwing shoes will soon be illegal also
And while they try to legislate away the gun accidents, thousands upon thousands are killed by drunk drivers (who they haven't been able to legislate away), cell phone talking drivers (who they haven't been able to legislate away), idiots who just plain don't know how to drive (who they haven't been able to legislate away), muggers (who they haven't been able to legislate away), home invaders (who they haven't been able to legislate away), rapists (who they haven't been able to legislate away), Al Gore (who they haven't been able to legislate away), etc., etc. ad nauseum (I think you see where I'm headed with this).
If they were to legislate away everything that could possibly harm us, nothing would exist (including us and them). Where does it end? (rhetorical question, admittedly with no answer).
