The "current lack of will to use them" is because not everybody is fucking insane and because that's not how the world works. Even if you had a large uprising with guns, they would simply get wiped off the face of the planet by the military quicker than you can blink...... But you're trying to meance together two different problems to fit your own agenda anyway. Just because people aren't going out and shooting up every synagogue, like you would love for them to, doesn't mean that people are going to sit there and let their guns be taken either....
