For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.So just ban guns (held by licenced gun holders) because on very, very rare occasions one of these people might become deranged and use them to kill. Senseless. We can't go through life worrying about every eventuality. Most people who use guns to kill or commit crime hold their weapons illegally. All that will happen if guns are taken away from licensed holders, (as as Eddie says) there will be no difference in the amount of gun crime.
Tony Martin's guns were held illegally and he shot someone and killed them, yet everybody thinks he did right to do so, and many people said everybody has the right to defend their homes!

That's pretty much it. Why does anyone need to keep a gun at home ?

I'd be surprised if 'everybody' sai that, actually...........
No-one with an illegally-held firearm was responsible for Hungerford, Dunblane or this recent shocker............

Moonraker - Your argument is getting a little silly, now; will you also be raising the issues of knives, rolling pins, heavy-based statues and lamps, electrical flex, garden twin, carrier-bags, screwdrivers, etc. to bolster (oooh, bolsters, too !) your very thin argument? Why *does* anyone need to keep a weapon, capable of killing many people, from distance, in their house ?

Daffy. I know. What I am trying to say is that people supported Tony Martin for having a gun for defending his property, even though it was illegal. Those same people are probably now saying it should be illegal to have a gun in the home (even on licence)
If you see what I mean. I wasn't comparing the cases.
JTH. I disagree. Bringing the subject of illegal guns into the thread is very relevant.
