It seems that the people who are paranoid about people owning guns (and these are the same people who call those that want to keep guns paranoid about them) are scared of them because they don't own them and others do.
The UK banned handguns, so now most crimes are likely to be committed with knives, doesn't change a thing.
Hey, you're free to think what you want, but the United States still has by far the highest murder rate per capita in the entire Western world. Something's obviously wrong there.
The murder rate with a firearm per capita in the United States is 28 times what it is in the United Kingdom. For all the talk I hear of "banning firearms means that only criminals will have them", I sure don't see evidence of that.
