The bigest problems with having so many guns is that.
1) the nutters can get them more easily.
2) borderline nutters can get them easily.
3) young kids can, and do, get them to play with and kill others by
mistake much too often.
4) killing or injuring someone at a distance is so easy,

And the reason that guns should be much more closely controlled is that
with almost all other weapons you have to get close to the person you
injure/kill.

But by controlled I mean that all guns and ammunition should be easily
identifiable and the original owner made equally responsible for their
use or misuse, with no exceptions at all, unless that owner could prove
that they had sold the gun/ammo to another identifiable responsible
person.
Regrettably at this time that could not happen in any country where the
law often lets people totally avoid responsibility.
However if it could be achieved the level of gun related crime/accidents
would drop at an amazing rate.

Pray tell...how would you accomplish this?

There are a bit more than 300,000,000 firearms in the US.

Think our people will simply turn them in or register them?

Snicker..think again
