Why anti-gun laws will never work in US

[JohnnyRingo]

155. Not to put too fine of a point on it...

...but your sentence that "Guns are designed for one goal, and that is to KILL PEOPLE", is a fundamentally incorrect blanket statement. Ask any animal from a lowly raccoon to a black bear (don't get too close). Hunting different animals require different calibers, and there's a vague line between sportsman and criminal that no politician dares cross.

While an "assault rifle" rightfully takes on a sinister context when seen in The Bronx, it's seen as more of a tool at a Montana ranch. No one would panic and call the police if they saw an AR-15 on the rifle rack of a pickup truck in Alaska.

On edit:
I shun the NRA as an arm of the Republican Party, and seek common sense regulations like waiting periods, background checks, and dealer-only registered sales. Solutions like "throwing all the guns in the ocean" is as much an idealistic fantasy as a global ban on nuclear weapons. It feels good to say it, but implementation is unrealistic.
