albums, I think most people accept that the vast majority of gun owners are responsible. (ignoring the fact that when responsible people go bad, the last thing you want them to have access to is a load of guns). If they were all already nuts, there'd be nobody left alive by now.
Things have been done to reduce the numbers of smoking deaths - negative advertising, public smoking bans, tax increases and the like.
Things have been done to make cars safer - speed limits, seat-belt laws, drink-driving laws, air-bags etc. Not to mention driving lessons and practical and theory driving tests (in the UK, not sure about the US).
People are merely suggesting that similar measures might be a sensible option to consider when looking for ways to reduce the number of innocent people killed by guns.
