I think you're being overly optimistic.

Indeed. The problem with this utopian ideal is that it is functionally
impossible, anywhere in the world, to have a community without guns.

That being the case, the argument is fallacious at its core.

There are lots of communities in the world where no one has a gun. And
amazingly, no one gets shot there!

Prove it. Show me one community that you can certify does not have a gun in
it, and then show me how you can prevent a gun from being brought into that
community from outside.

I never said some whackjob like yourself couldn't bring a gun into a place
with no guns.
