It's actually not guns - it's the people.
I remember I was at a party once where somebody was complaining about the state of the planet - "the planet is stuffed" they said etc.
I replied that there is really not much wrong with the planet, it's the people that live here. This I think reflects the issues in the United States.
All too often its guns or gun laws that are routinely blamed - actually it's the people that live there and their attitudes to each other. I agree it does not make sense for people to have automatic weapons (for what reason would you need them?) - but the issues they have are deeper than guns.
