On the subject of banning things for the sake of banning things:

A prominent anti-gun congresswoman gets questioned on her bill, and doesn't know what the things in it she's banning are. Also note the lie about semiautomatic rifles being used frequently, instead of in 3% of homicides (which includes all rifles).

They revoke your s.1/s.2 licences, that's what.
And they probably don't even give you your pistol license.

At the same time, the whole notion of carrying guns as planning ofr self defence seems ridiculous to me. I feel confident enough that home invasion is a significantly remote event that it is inherently flawed to plan for.
I don't care one way or the other, the choice is yours (assuming you live in a place like America). I only mind when people try to force those ideas on me.

As could be seen in this thread, people are told we should 'rely on police' to protect us. I asked and have received no answer as to how police can stop a man breaking into your house.
