I don't know. It's like the Riddle of Steel. The Gods and Giants fought a war and when it was over they left steel on the battleground. Those who found the steel were just men. Kinda like letting the genie out of the bottle. Sad to say, but we are experiencing the same thing with nuclear weapons. A gun, is just a tool, and it's been abused. A gun, used in a lawful manner, is not dangerous to the ordinary citizen. There was a story once where a kid, about last century, brought his grandpa's shotgun to show and tell. The teacher told him, after he was done, to set it in the corner until time to go home. Can you imagine those days? Where it was like a saw, or a hammer. Think about it. Pitbulls were no big deal a hundred years ago. Sad.
