Did you read my comment? I said I would vote for restrictions or bans. That means I would give up my gun. I am not the reason guns are so freely available in the US. Since that's the way it is, I figured I'd face reality and learn how to use them. It's not a hobby, I live in a place with a lot of gun crime. I would prefer if they weren't so easy to get, but here we are. I'm going to continue to choose to live in objective reality here, and if/when restrictions or bans are actually feasible in this country I'll be all for it.
You are naive if you think there is no legitimate hunting use for them. I don't think you understand how important hunting is in certain parts of the US. It keeps the ecosystem from collapsing in more rural places.
