Laws rarely stop anyone, they just provide consequences when someone breaks said law and gets caught. It's a means of punishment for the most part, not determent or prevention
The real point is that an out and out ban on firearms will only take them out of the hands of law abiding citizens - the criminals will continue to get them.
Doesn't mean we can't have appropriate, sensible laws to punish those who use firearms with malicious intent.
