If I understand you right, you are one of them who fight for the right to bear arms. But even you must somehow be tired of hearing about all those masskilling, that seems to happens almost 1-2 days per week.

I do understand that a ban of some kind would not prevent those killings, ´cause it's not the weapon that kill, it's the person behind it.

By reading some of yours posting and others I can say this:
I'm glad I'm not the president of USA.

I heard an interesting observation today on NPR radio as I was driving home. A fellow gun owner noted that a majority of the impetus for the gun control movement, these mass killings and other gun violence, both criminal and accidental, could be prevented if we gun owners would just practice what we preach and keep our guns secured or under our direct control at all times when they are not.
