Do you mean like they did during WWII when we put all Japanese citizens in camps to stop a few from spying or when we defined water boarding as not a torture method after 9/11? How about we change the part that states all men are created equal so that we can eliminate those most likely to commit such atrocities. You can prevent more deaths over all age groups by eliminating alcohol. I find it hypocritical that most will not give up their drinks but want to take away other's firearms. My owning a gun has no more to so with what happened than your having a drink does with all the deaths caused by DUI. A better argument can be made for owning a gun for defense than having a drink.
You see the problem is that once you start down the slippery slope you suggest is that sooner or later they will come for what you like.
