Therefore remove all weapons from all hands on the minuscule chance that someone will go off?
How'd that work with other rights? Sew up all mouths because a person might shout FIRE in a crowded theater and cause a stampede that kills people?
The cost of a free society is that some aberrant individual will abuse that freedom. The answer is not to remove the freedom, the answer is to address the causes of aberrance.
