Yup.
Given the violence normally stems from the Left, its collective desire to eradicate guns makes sense. The problem, however, is that we’re not all deranged Leftists that need to be corralled.
Not even all of the leftists are that deranged, but those who are cannot imagine being any other way.
For them, the fear of weapons may be a healthy thing, if they are afraid they cannot control themselves well enough to not present a danger to those around them.
It is in projecting their emotional problems onto others where they start drifting away from the saner part of the bell curve.
