Of course they can as can a UHaul full of fertilizer. But its difficult to stick 3 deer rifles in your belt and carry a canister of ammo in your back pocket. The idea is to drastically reduce gun deaths, not eliminate them. But at the same time respect the Constitution. The Founding Fathers were clear that citizens should have the right to be armed to fight any oppressive government that may develop. You fight wars with rifles not hand guns so banning hand guns should be Constitutionally acceptable to all although I realize many won't like it.
