Even a lowly educated white winger can see that guns enable just about anyone to kill/wound/intimidate/bully lots of people.

The idea advanced by gun-strokers that lax gun laws is the price we must pay for them to have access to more and more guns is utter BS. I really do not understand how anyone can support our lax laws regarding how many and what types of lethal weapons anyone can acquire and carry in public. Nor, do I understand how gun manufacturers, dealers and profiteers escape legal liability for the situation they foster.
