You're absolutely welcome to think what you like, but I'd be a bit wary of thinking your view of firearms is just 'common sense'.
You know, during some of my family members' lifetimes, my own people were subjected to a genocide by a government who first deprived us of the right to own any weapons.
Just a generation before, the country that perpetrated this genocide was considered one of the best places for our people to live on earth.
Given this, I'm certainly not inclined to trust any particular nation-state, and letting a government disarm me seems a bit on the foolish side.
