Gwendolyn Hawthorne said, "Everyone can go get a gun, it will be like the Wild West!" This mouth-breather needs to do some research. The "wild" west was a relatively demure locale with which to live. There were far more killings in the un-wild east. Even the most infamous shoot-out, the OK Corral, resulted in the deaths of 3 people.

“Even the most infamous shoot-out, the OK Corral, resulted in the deaths of 3 people.”
The real irony of the ‘Gunfight at the OK Corral” was, it was an arrest that went bad. An arrest for a firearms violation.

Even the most infamous shoot-out, the OK Corral, resulted in the deaths of 3 people. And THAT shootout was the result of gun control in the town.
