This is like when people said “well you can’t let gay people get married because what’s next?! A man marries a pineapple?!” 

No one knows what would happen if there was serious gun control but plenty try to act like they do.

I’m not saying to ban all guns but to act like you know what would happen if they were to be banned is hilarious.

Are you seriously saying we have no historical accounts of what happens to a people when they have their means of self-defense confiscated? We can't find a single example in the entirety of the history of humans, much less just in the last, oh, 75 years or so to give us pause?

I don't think anyone (except maybe a very few on the far left) is advocating confiscating your means of self-protection.  What most gun control discussions are about is the kind of weapons that can kill a whole bunch of people within seconds.   Unless you're planning to defend your house against an army, do you really need that kind of weapon?
