Another bit of nonsense imo:
"The cold hard REALITY is that, without access to guns, MANY FEWER PEOPLE WOULD BE KILLED VIOLENTLY."

I believe there are already over 200,000,000 guns in circulation in the U.S. Since you are proposing in your statement that there should not be "access" to guns I am wondering how you KNOW that there will be "MANY FEWER PEOPLE KILLED VIOLENTLY". Is this just a FEELING of yours, or do you have some FACTS to back that up?

It seems to me that criminals would still find ways to get guns (again, there are 200 million plus out there already), but law abiding citizens would not be allowed to. This MAY actually make criminals bolder, don't you think?
