Sure, not total in the sense that gun ownership is illegal, but you if you take a fucking gun to a city you will have your license revoked and probably go to prison. That is unless the gun was kept locked down, dismantled and securely separate from the ammunition in your trunk.
The point is to remove guns from people and places where they can do the most harm, like in a population centre. They have no reason to be there, and most of the world recognizes this.
Ah, if that's what you meant you're absolutely right. I think there's only one country in Europe where they have some (rather limited) form of carry by the public (Czech Republic if I'm not mistaken)
This is a much more nuanced view than a “total ban” honytawk suggested. I completely agree this should be the norm.
