Mayor of Nagasaki was shot dead in broad daylight[/quote:b6871]

Gun control had nothing to do with that.

If someone wants to kill a public official, without evidence noone can really stop them unless they're ready for it. Had he killed more than one person maybe I'd agree with you....but even if you had a weapon in that situation - how are you going to know where to shoot in time before the faceless criminal gets his one and only killshot off?
