Logic was take away our guns and let the criminals overrun us. The honest person would comply, but not the criminal. We would be overrun by over confident criminals. And the government wants to help them. End result would be 1000 times worse than an occasional nut job random shooting.
Total power by governments breeds Excessive corruption and control. Removal of guns will help promote that also. Unfortunately, our society breeds an unlimited number of immoral nut jobs. Therefore the government thinks it has to step in and save us from ourselves.
