"It's not a gun control problem; it's a cultural control problem." - Bob Barr
I completely agree with the reasoning behind this quote; we don’t need to ban guns if people learn the dangers of firearms and make the decision to control their impulses. In fact, this would be more effective than banning firearms, since people are always going to get firearms from somewhere; even if they are illegal in the United States, they aren’t in neighboring countries. Furthermore, while banning firearms will just create problems with smuggling and black markets, teaching people about the dangers will significantly cut down on those problems. This quote is significant because gun control is an important issue, and is one that extends to the bill of rights. This quote does not infringe on the second amendment. We actually had a debate about this in model UN, and the problem of the second amendment came up.
