This concept of freedom is amazing though. You will never hear the word freedom being used in any media outlets, we don't feel out freedom is ever in jeopardy, yet I read it a thousand times a day on ATS. The beauty of culture I suppose.

Individual rights. You're missing that one.
See, i've never harmed anyone and likely never will. So to limit my rights would seem to be quite tyrannical. And that is what this boils down to. Gun control shouldn't be a drag net, nor a Minority Report. And it absolutely should not arise because of a loud mouthpiece driving fear.
The world isn't nerf coated. Life is risk. Its just that simple. And if my owning a gun puts your life at risk...im cool with that. Because the risk is less than the risk you put yourself under by using a car.
Its all individual rights. You have no right to safety. But I do have a right to self preservation.

not only should we outlaw guns, we should just make the whole country a prison camp to stop the violence
All that would do is transfer and redistribute the violence.
