    Why is it that people who have never used a gun or know how to use one are the ones who try to explain them and establish gun control rules? The reason behind this is that those who make the laws do not think that the laws apply equally to themselves, but to everyone.

People who use guns to commit a crime do not acquire them legally anyway; these are law-abiding citizens who cannot obtain guns or ammunition to protect their families due to price or legislative changes.
