"Anyway, the problem with trying to outlaw guns is that only honest law- abiding people would turn in their guns. That would leave a large criminal element free to do as they please. Proof of that is the high rate of shootings at gun free zones, like schools."
No one is trying to outlaw guns. There should some be gun-free zones and this includes schools. Currently, most states have gun free zones at schools, churches, and bars. In Florida, if you carry a pistol into a bar or the bar area of a restaurant, you can be arrested. Very good idea, too. Do you want to be sitting in a bar when a drunk next to you pulls out his concealed pistol?
In the USA, it would be impossible to outlaw guns and to require them to be turned in. No one is even talking about that as an option for gun violence.
