Oh its more than that.
They think that the average citizen cant be trusted with a fire arm. They might lose control of themselves and kill someone like those cops in NYC did that nice cigarette salesman.
They worry that a citizen with a firearm might accidentally shoot someone like that cop in the subway a few years ago did when he shot the teenager sitting on the floor of that subway.
The Leftist simply dont believe that youre average citizen has the training required to safely handle firearms in public.
