I think the dominant right wing gun culture is the biggest problem and maybe that should be regulated. Here in Canada we have lots of guns, and can legally own a few weapons that are illegal in most states like .50 BMG anti material rifles. Heck even black powder artillery is legal here with a basic non restricted license.
My dad spent 4 years in Colorado Springs (posted at Cheyenne Mountain) and he said it was the first place he lived where people are scared of their neighbours and where people think solving arguments with bullets is acceptable behavior.
Even our "gun nuts" if you suggested solving a disagreement with a gun they would slowly back away and call in a mental health check on the person in question.

If we outlaw abortion, only outlaws will have abortions.

Admittedly, it’s an argument I’ve never understood—a law being unreasonable simply because "criminals will break it". Criminals break all kinds of laws we still want to have on the books.
what guns do you think should be legal for a citizen to own ?

@YourMomsSecretCrush I can respect that. A weapon in the home to protect the home is perfectly sensible.

Anything they have a legitimate reason to own, subject to them being mentally stable, law abiding citizens.

@YourMomsSecretCrush That makes sense. It’s the people who are stockpiling extensive arsenals in the name of the 2nd Amendment, about whom I worry.

@LordShadowfire Control freaks have the Moses complex. They think if they pass another million laws everything will be perfect.
