I see a few people commented that they like to own/hold/fire their own guns. I don't see how that is relevant. Some people like to rape people - is that reason enough to make it legal for them to do so? Maybe I would "like" to shoot my own nukes at asteroids or big empty deserts or the south pole - so should I be able to buy nukes in Walmart? All I'm saying is that the case should be argued on more practical grounds. Argue for self-defense or pest control or whatever; "because I want one" doesn't really cut it.
