Great. Now we have a benchmark for the former in your remark; people with guns CAN make mistakes. I'm not disputing this. In fact, here is a story about a Cop shooting another Cop in a Drug bust.

Now if you can show me where a "Gun Free Zone" stopped a crazy person from using a gun.
Or where just banning guns outright has put an end to violent deaths, not just shooting, because Canada has plenty of knife attacks and blunt force traumas to worry anyone.
"To evade an argument, let me just scoot out of here by just saying,
Good Luck disarming people; especially gun owners."
I think Australia is the classic case to point to but I don't think it would work in the US. At this point there are so many guns and such a huge cultural attachment that you'll never see a big disarming like that.
Thanks for the link to the WT article it's an interesting read. I'm not sure that it proves causation but I will accept it as an example of what I asked for.
"Canada has plenty of knife attacks and blunt force traumas to worry anyone."
But not gun attacks, you just proved my point. Take a look at Australia too. Since you are so adamant about about examples, please show me an example of where arming a populace with guns lead to less gun crime.
the odds of you dying from cancer is 1 in 7
the odds of you dying in an automobile wreck is 1 in 114
the odds of you dying due to a firearms discharge is 1 in 6,905
why not ban automobiles?
Ok...

It's a ridiculous concept, forcefully removing force from people. Think about it.
