Of course guns don't kill people (by themselves), but they make it a hell of a lot easier if that's your intention.
Put it this way, it would be a hell of a lot harder to kill 12 and wound 58 even in a crowded cinema with a knife, or a sword, or a tomahawk, or even a car or a... Sure, a few people would've got injured, or maybe even a couple killed, however there's a hell of a lot more chance people could fight back to protect themselves in such a situation.
Your contention that if guns were taken away, everybody would be carrying swords is quite ridiculous. The vast majority of the 'western' world doesn't permit guns. Murder rates are way lower in those countries than in the US and nobody carries swords. Fact.
What are you so afraid of that you have to defend yourself from? England isn't coming. Who the fuck needs automatic weapons to "defend themselves" anyway?
