I am trying to present ideas that I think would help prevent the person from getting a gun to kill you, if it fails we can still prosecute but I'd like to prevent your death if at all possible.

No law will prevent killings. If only laws were so simple and certain.
No law prosecutes all perps. Not all prosecutions result in conviction (thank god).
No law will prevent a person from getting a gun to kill another person.
