While I'm not a gun owner, I don't think gun control will be any more effective in reducing crime any more than banning knives will reduce the demand for steak!

Remember how effective prohibition was in reducing public desire for alchohol?

People struggle with good and evil intentions regularly, and there isn't much to control how one chooses to motivates his/her intent.

If the threat of a fine, public humiliation, incarceration, or death isn't enough of a deterrent to prevent someone from committing a crime, why should gun control be any different?
