tejek,

re:And not having a gun makes it harder for people to kill. In fact, in societies with strong gun control, there is much less homicide

So you really want confiscation, not gun control - that fans the registration fear very nicely. The gun violence numbers in england went up after banning guns, not down.

re:Why not make it impossible to get a gun.

We have this pesky 2nd amendment and you would need to ban them worldwide. Drugs are banned, but they seem to be everywhere - your idea is cute on paper and short on reality.

re:Huh? Are you all that bad a shot?

I don't shoot people - just paper and deer.
