Because of these reasons we think that even with all the proper regulations that people don't follow guns should be banned all around the country. Because of all these reasons it should be banned and not legal to own a gun.
Also you said that how would they have a chance against a criminal very easy get stronger and take martial arts or even just go to Dick's and buy a baseball bat.
Bill clinton stated this:
"When we got organized as a country, [and] wrote a fairly radical Constitution, with a radical Bill of Rights, giving radical amounts of freedom to Americans, it was assumed that Americans who had that freedom would use it responsibly .... When personal freedom is being abused, you have to move to limit it."
- Bill Clinton
It is saying that when people abuse the right to have a gun they should be taken away and many people have abused the right for many years now.
With a cost of a handgun which is around $500-600(not including the magazine or the bullets or the safe or the permit) so overall the total costs is around $900-1200.You could get enough martial arts training to completely immobilize a person even with a gun or a knife. The average mixed martial arts class costs $50-75 a month or $1000 a year which is pretty much the cost of a gun up front.
yes you are right if they really wanted one they would eventually get one but it would be a lot harder and the punishment would be more severe so no one would want to get one. Like in the UAE the punishment is so severe that people are scared to get a gun even if they are able to because they would rather live without it then suffer the consequences.
You say that without the gun the children and mother would have died but that is untrue because since they were in the attic they had the upper ground and they could have easily grabbed something hard and hit the intruder as he came up which would have probably knock him out and they would still be safe. This is also because the intruder was not armed with a gun. If he was armed with a gun the family would most probably be dead by now. Also the chances that you hit a target under high stress is very low and especially with a .38 revolver because of the recoil.
Yes 55% of the time so what pretty much happens is either you kill them or you get killed.
See this is one of the many reasons why children accidentally kill or get killed. This is because many parents think that their child does not know where the gun is but in fact many children do.more than half of their parents do not keep their guns locked and unloaded which should not be the case. Also Nearly 800 children under 14 were killed in gun accidents from 1999 to 2010, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nearly one in five injury-related deaths in children and adolescents involve firearms. If a gun is loaded and not in a safe while at home and your kids find it thinking that as responsible parents you unloaded the gun then they might start playing with it and kill or be killed. This is one of the many reasons guns should be banned even with regulations because many people still dont follow them.

Yes he said if they were legal which they were not because of a reason. A armed robber or armed rapists would most probably kill you or even hurt you very bad if they figured out you had a concealed weapon.
Our first point is that a person does not need a gun to protect themselves.
Like? What inventions were done from space explorations? Please Clarify you are not making sense!!!
What is this "people Dying"? people die because they get old or they die because of getting killed this does not make sense please clarify.
This makes no sense. They are not wasting money because one day the earth will be uninhabitable and humans will have to find a new home.
I think it is worth it because the earth is going to run out of resources for man kind to survive. We need to find another planet that can be inhabited by humans.
