Well liberties are one thing, but I'm not sure if guns are a essential factor in the functioning of a society. You don't exactly need a gun to live, or go to work, or what not.

Well, I'm not sure if junk food is an essential factor in the functioning of a soceity. Besides, there are too many obese people dying, if we got rid of junk food, we could save lives!
You see? The government cannot deny us something, merely because it is not nescasary for a functioning society. For guns to be banned, there must be some moral wrong in simply owning a gun. And besides ... do you trust the government to determine what is nescasary for a functioning society? I sure don't! You said yourself "I'm not sure if guns are ..." Well, how sure does one have to be before something is banned?
I'm going to cut myself short on this argument, because there really is no viable argument for banning guns. Now, those crying 'restrictions' have a good point (even driving is restricted!), but that is another argument, and I am of the mind that the less restrictions the better. But, perhaps that argument will come out in another post.
