"We have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction."
~ US State Department, 1948

Common criminals and thugs, who care not one whit about "legal" or "illegal", will always have guns (even if completely banned, they are extremely simple to make in a home workshop). Also, the police and military, who are merely agents of the psychopaths in power, will always have them. And, as history has shown over and over and over again, governments tend to turn on those they consider opponents, whether real or imagined, killing them by the thousands and millions. Throughout history, no form of gov't has been an exception, to include the most advanced and "civilized" societies of their time.
It is unconscionable to deprive people of the ability to protect themselves from those who would injure or kill them, whether those are merely common criminals (who will still exist even in your utopian fantasy) or the agents of a gov't in the process of trying to consolidate/maintain its power.
And, yes, the commercial is well-done, and sends a valuable message without demonizing law-abiding firearms owners as most anti-gun lobbies try to do.
Of course the cops and the military have them (duh), but they're not using them to shoot civilians like in the US.
I don't NEED to protect myself with a gun because NOBODY is trying to kill me.
Maybe you've lived in an insane country for too long and think the whole world is insane and can't be any different.
You've obviously never been on aeroplane before.
We can't all be soccer moms.
Or can we?
Yes, we must.
We must become soccer moms, every one of us, to protect the children.
And let those in government train and equip the soldiers and the poliice departments.
This is surely the way to peace.
