If the sole goal of the object is to kill another person, yeah, it should be banned. If you REALLY want to shoot for sport, shoot a shotgun or a rifle. Seriously, its the same thing. The only reason to want a handgun is to look or feel cool and tough, or to kill or wound someone. If you want to pretend to be Jack Bauer, go south.
