How many people are for gun control?

You need to define the term "gun control". In the US, there are several thousand different laws on guns. Laws that cover who can own a gun, who (and where) a gun can be carried, size of the gun, what it can be made of, how many shots it can hold, etc etc. The problem is, people that do not follow laws that forbid robbery, murder, theft, kidnapping- ALSO do not follow gun laws. The result is that laws mainly affect honest people that do not break the law. Several countries have effectively banned private ownership of guns, in the belief that it would reduce crime. However, they have since found that crime rates INCREASE after such a ban, since law abiding persons now have lost the ability to defend themselves.
