I don't think it is possible to reverse US gun-nut culture, so at this point it is generally a good idea to own a gun so you can defend yourself from other people with guns. Ideal situation is when guns are not readily and easily available to criminals and people generally only have hunting long guns.

Let's see some of these some of these "DOZENS" of Incidents per one story like this!

It's sad you're willing to give up a RIGHT to protect yourself just because some bad apples. With this logic let's give up our vehicles, because drunken idiots get into arguments jump in a car take off and kill innocent people too. In fact a lot more die from these actions rather than guns. So... when are you going to start picketing driving cars because of drunk drivers?
