>do you really think that a bunch of citizens with handguns will make any difference against the largest and most high-tech military in the world?
Considering the difficulty our armed services are having against even less sophisticated resistance in the middle east, i think you seriously underestimate the average american and overestimate the average soldier.
>the rational conclusion must be that making guns illegal across the board is not in fact "punishing law-abiding citizens" but rather saving them from unnecessary crime.
Save for that whole pesky second amendment thing, which affirms the right to keep and bear arms, "rationality" be damned.
