I can see no reason to make it illegal for law abiding citizens to own a handgun or non-assault hunting rifle/shotgun when criminals are not bound to the same laws.

How about we hold the criminals responsible for theft and illegal use of the weapon rather then punish the law abiding individuals that choose to arm themselves in order to fend of the multitudes of repeat offenders that our court system releases every day?
In what way are criminals not bound to the same laws? Laws apply in the same way to every citizen. And if multitudes of repeat offenders are allegedly being released, isn't the solution to stop releasing them?
So glad I live in Oz.
