But playing devils advocate again.
The Ooops factor is exactly why we need to ban all guns everywhere.
"What if" a child gets a gun, and takes it to school.
"What if" a child finds a gun in his Daddy's drawers and accidentally shoots his buddy.
"What if" someone breaks into a house and steals the guns.
"What if" someone breaks into the house and takes the gun from the owner, and then shoots him.
"What if" someone hears a noise in the house, grabs a gun, and shoots the shadow they see, finding out its there spouse.
"What if"...Ooops.
I understand where you're coming from, but while they might be tragic, every one of those "What ifs" is a lot less damaging than explosives have the potential to be. Junior shooting himself by accident with daddy's gun is terrible, but junior leveling half the block by accidentally starting a fire and touching off daddy's armory is worse.
Someone earlier in the thread pointed out that freedom ends where it crosses over the threshold of putting your fellow citizens at undue risk. By buying a gun, you assume the responsibility and risk of owning one. But by buying crew served weapons and explosives, you're asking your neighbors to assume those risks as well, and that's neither right nor fair.
