"France outlaws most gun ownership and it's almost impossible to legally acquire a high-powered rifle such as an AK-47, so where did the weapons in the Nov. 13 terror attack—not to mention the bloody January assault by Islamic terrorists on the Paris office of Charlie Hebdo magazine and the 2012 shootings by a militant in Toulouse— come from?"

Getting rid of guns does not solve anything. It makes matters worse because people are unable to defend themselves. Killers will get guns no matter what even if they have to make them. Remember zip guns?
