Good reasons for gun control

Hanton: There are good reasons to regulate firearms

Like tired old retread arguments.
At the very least, can we agree that a ban, or partial ban, on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines to help protect our police officers and citizens from extended rampages by criminals is in order?
My answer is...

No.

He didn't really give a convincing reason beyond, people get killed with a handgun therefore get rid of "assault" rifles. And large capacity magazines. Nobody needs them for hunting. Or sport.
