What an ignorant and uninformed way to view the problem.
It sounds pretty much equivalent to saying things like:
"Oh why oh why are cars still legal when kids are dying in car accidents"
Or even worse yet: "If we made vaccines illegal people would stop dying of vaccines.
The reason is because these viewpoints are ignorant of the big picture. Guns save lives, and prevent incidents from happening, they also cause incidents. Any real argument looks at all of that at frames the issue as one of violence first and foremost.
No we arent "oh but we like our toys".. no its more like "Well these tools help us prevent deaths too, so we wont give them up over a poorly framed emotional argument.
