The problem is beyond gun control. There are too many souls living here and in  In a semi-free market there also comes a black market (obviously because its not completely free). You cannot stop people in America from getting guns, no less than you can stop illegal drug trade. Take away the guns too and no one will be able to defend themselves. American has been entrenched in gun culture since its inception.

You will never get any control whatsoever if you don't start somewhere. Saying that the problem is to big and therefore nothing should be done to regulate sales is to give up. Australia is a great example of the effects from gun control. Also, people don't need guns to defend themselves, arming everyone just causes more and more violence instead.

^ this is the problem that most just dont seem able to accept.

But something has to be done, its costing way more lives than it protects.
