Ban all guns other than for farmers living out in the sticks that rely on hunting game for food, or shooting vermin. Anyone found owning a gun and not having a license, receiving an automatic one year prison sentence and the gun confiscated. In the UK I had a gun license for rabbit shooting but no gun. I used a friends gun. I had to renew the license annually. I had it for one year and forgot to go to the police station to renew it. A week after it lapsed, a copper came to the door and asked for my license. I had to go to the police station and explain why I hadn't renewed it. I cancelled the license. I'm not a gun lover anyway. The point I'm making is that in the UK, and Australia I believe, there is strict control over guns and anyone possessing one illegally will go to jail. The Brits don't arm teachers in schools!
