Don't claim self defense, because guns are OFFENSIVE weaspons. Maybe "a good offense makes the best defense" is true for american football, but it's certainly NOT true where human lives are concerned, even if it's the human life of some asshole with a gun to your families heads. More guns entered into a situation where there's already one does not make for the best possible outcome. it never does.
In fact, it quite often makes the worst possible scene happen- a shoot out. Maybe YOU get shot and killed because you wouldn't let him rob you.
What happens when our government tries to ship guns? oh right, ISIS and Mexican Drug Cartels get a hold of, the proceed to kill us with them. Nice going. Interesting how guns don't care who they're shooting.
"Guns don't kill people, people kill people."
True. However, guns make it extremely EASY to murder, and easy murder is not okay with me. if your gonna take the life of a person or animal, it should be difficult.
"People would kill each other with knives or something else if there were no guns"
Again, due to the increased difficulty, there would be less overall murders. Even if someone has a gun, they usually won't shoot if you stare them in the eyes. Same is even more true if you're up close and personal, say with a knife.
"2nd amendment 2nd amendment 2nd amendment"
The 18th amendment was repealed by a later one. why can't the second be? Besides, I think there is fare more precedent for making guns illegal than making booze legal.
"Well what about hunters?"
Hunting is unnecessary these days, and is therefore cruel. I don't care if the animal never sees it coming and experiences no fear or pain. It is still DEAD because of you, and just for your amusement/entertainment/fun/sport/whatev... you wanna call it. It's absolutely sick and only barbarians would take part in it.

What makes people this way? I mean, not a lick of this makes any sense whatsoever.
