Check out these stats:

America is massively more violent than any other first world country and has far more firearms deaths than any first or second world country.
What about the fact that we document our crime a lot better then most of these countries?
I agree that we as American's have a problem with firearms, but it can't be blamed on the firearms themselves. Thats what you seem to not understand.
Had this father taught his son the power of that shotgun, I have no doubt in my mind he'd still be alive today. So basically what I'm saying is that its his own damn fault. For A) not teaching his son, and B) keeping a loaded shotgun unlocked, probably sitting under his bed or in his closet. And now his son will have to live with that for the rest of his life, because this was no doubt something he didn't mean to happen.
You also have no understand of what it would mean to illegalizing weapons in this country. Did you read my Civil War statement. It could happen, and anyone who understands this country and American's also understands why that would be more then just possible, it would be likely. And then how many people will die?
What we need to do is find the cause, and fix it. I've already found the problem in my mind, its the parents and their irresponsible laziness. That's 90% of the problem in America if you ask me, now how do we fix that.
