What a horrible thing, to have a gun pointed at your children for political reasons. This man was obviously crazy and fortunately things worked out. Fortunately insanity is rare among individuals, the problem is that it is all too common in groups (Nietzsche). This is the problem with the JDLs antigun stand. That man would have gotten a hold of a weapon anyway. Gun control is unilateral disarmament of the law biding. While it doesn't help you at that moment, there are circumstance in which it would be vital. Suppose the efforts of Weisenthal, JDL, Holocaust museums, etc. fail. Societies do go bad. There is antisemitism on both the left and the right. Suppose the PR fails, then all you are left with is a firearm to protect you if they come for you in your house. Yes, changing hearts is vital but if it fails, you need a back up. I strongly urge you to read the materials on the link that I posted for an alternative view.
