Guns make it easier for a person to kill more people if that's what the person chooses to do. Sensible guns control laws tend to keep guns out of the hands of people who make that choice. Sydney had such a murderous event on Saturday afternoon - a nut with a big knife ran around a local shopping center stabbing people. He managed to kill six people, and he injured nine more including a baby before the police shot him dead. If he had had a gun, he would have killed and injured more. https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/bondi-junction-shooting-stabbings-live-updates-police-operation-in-sydney-s-eastern-suburbs-20240413-p5fjku.html The killer had had mental health issue for quite some time. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney
