It's true that it is easy for law abiding citizens to get a gun here thank God.  But no matter where you are, criminals can always find a gun on the illegal black market and those are the people that I am prepared for.  And if someone breaks into my home with a knife or a pipe they stand absolutely no chance.

Not to mention that rioters in England had guns. Gun laws over there did nothing much to stop them from acquiring firearms

That's exactly right.  For the most part all gun laws do is to take protection out of the hands of the law abiders, which is just silly.  I grew up in a town where it was actually against the law NOT to own a gun.  Oddly enough break in crimes there were virtually non existent.  We have our problems but one thing I can promise you is that you would never see looting riots going on around here.
