We must stand firm on the right to own weapons.  Law abiding citizens should be able to collect guns if they choose. More people are killed by drunk driving, drunken fights, and drunken domestic violence than they are by guns.  People focus on guns to get press attention and their name in the paper and for the purpose of ultimately controlling the population.  If we don't have any means of defense, we are defenseless.   Law abiding citizens should have a way to defend themselves. Our population continues to grow and we cannot expect law enforcement to be everywhere and especially not in our homes.  It is the right of people to keep their own property.  The government has no right to enter or make us take items from the homes of law-abiding citizens.
