The problem is if YOU (or anyone) has the right to own a gun that could potentially hurt ME (or anyone).
The idea that most citizens are sane and balanced enough to have that power in their hands is insane and irresponsible, reason why the US has the highest murder rate in the industrialised world, and the vast majority of them aren't people defending themselves, but people killing each other for stupid reasons.
Reason why they do it? Because they can.
