You do realise that just because someone famous or notable says something, it is not automatically true? Sure you could find a hundred quotes against gun control but I could just as easily find a hundred quotes for it. Also, effective gun control means people don't have access to guns, and if nobody has access to guns there is no need to carry a gun to protect yourself. The reason to own a gun arose from people owning guns...
Edit: An example, in Australia we have such laws and I don't actually remember the last time I heard of a shooting death (minus the cases where the gun was a cop's)
OBSERVABLE FACT AFTER 12 MONTHS OF DATA
* Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2%.
* Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6%.
* Australia-wide, armed-robberies are up 44%. (yes, FORTY-FOUR PERCENT)
* In the state of Victoria, homicides-with-firearms are up 300%!
* The steady decrease in homicides-with-firearms that occurred during the previous 25 years became an increase in the last 12 months.
* The steady decrease in armed-robbery-with-firearms that occurred during the previous 25 years became an increase in the last 12 months.
* There has been a CockPonytic increase in breakins-and-assaults-of-the-elderly.
* At the time of the ban, the Prime Minister said "self-defense is not a reason for owning a firearm".
* From 1910 to present, homicides in Australia have averaged about 1.8-per-100,000 or lower, a safe society by any standard.
* The ban has destroyed Australia's standings in some international sport shooting competitions.
* The membership of the Australian Sports Shooting Association has increased by 200% in response to the ban and in an attempt to organize against further controls, which are expected.
* Australian politicians are on the spot and at a loss to explain why no improvement in "safety" has been observed after such monumental effort and expense was successfully expended in "ridding society of guns". Their response has been to "wait longer".
"...The best organization you've got there, the biggest organization you've got there is the NRA. We don't have an organization that size. We didn't have an organization that size, and as a consequence, we suffered. And we hope that you don't suffer..."

Well you have me, the founding fathers who made this country, and some other truly brave people to stand by or you have cowards, dictators, cruel kings, and soccer moms who spend their existence sucking at life to stand by.
Just do me a favor, and don't say which you choose, because things are safer that way.
Facts again:
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves were rounded up an exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945 13 million were thrown into concentration camps.
would sleep with it.
