in a perfect world banning all guns might work, but it won’t because guns can be gotten illegally. Once someone has a gun and no-one else in the area has a way to stop him\her until the cops come. 5 minutes later. By that time there are quite a few dead people. Banning guns just won’t work. Jail time if found with a gun isn’t that scary. Death by a random armed person at the crime scene would ensure a lower casualty rate, if there is one at all, because of a immediate reaction time, and is much more frightening than anything else. That wouldn’t necessarily stop the problem, but it would majorly slow it down.
