The only problem I see in your thinking is that it follows a pathway of deescalation towards violent behaviour. It would be better to leave firearms alone. They are more discriminatory and selective when it comes to doing injury and death, as opposed to the messes that comes through the employment IED and suicide bombs. The trouble with closing one door, is that it invariably opens another. You would think that the wise heads that attempt to run this country would have figured that out by now.
