Gun Control & RKBA

but none of it justifies allowing or disallowing handguns (just as none of it justifies allowing or disallowing nuclear bombs or bioweapons for individual use). Saying it is "wrong" to limit self-defense says nothing about the specific issue of handguns (or gang violence, or gun violence in general).

Furthermore, banning handguns does not necessarily mean banning rifles. I was asked about solutions to gang gun violence and proposed banning handguns. Since rifles are not easily concealed, perhaps gang members would not be carrying them as much, and would be more easily identified when they are. Rifles and shotguns can be chopped down a bit in size, but I doubt they could be as small or concealable as a 9mm pistol.
