If no civilians have guns, then nobody gets shot.
If someone breaks into your house with a gun, and you also have a gun, odds are somebody's gonna get shot.
Yes, if guns are illegal for all civilians, criminals are still gonna have guns. But would you really want to shoot somebody with the intent of hurting them, even if it is in self-defense? Those are some pretty heavy words, to say that you've shot someone with the intent of hurting them. Self defense or not, you still shot someone.

Lets say we live in a world where no civilians have guns, not even criminals. Someone breaks into your house, and he (or she) has a knife. I think a metal baseball bat would be a better means of defending myself than a knife.
Knives might look more dangerous (and they might be more dangerous depending on the size), but the blunt force of a bat is more dangerous the way I see it.. A hard swing at the right location on the head could kill a person, if not make them unconscious. It's not as easy to knock someone out with a knife.
Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.
