The government has better guns anyway,and people who know how to use them,
so what are you going to do with your shotgun against the big guys?
Stop pretending that you can beat the government when they decide that
democracy isn't really what they had in mind. Meanwhile,banning guns
is the best way to avoid any idiot with a gun starting to play Rambo,
or any frustrated soul or psycho to blow people away in the subway.
Criminals will allways have guns,hey ,sue them,that's what the cops are
(or should be) for.
