Gun safety vs Gun control

Which would you choose? With all the talk of gun control it seems we are choosing gun control even though it has proven not to work statistically, so why not look into other options such as Gun safety.

*Gun safety teaches you how to handle, store and use a gun so that no one gets hurt, except when you are defending yourself and then the bad guy gets it not you.

* Gun control sets up a system which allows thugs, criminals and oppressive governments to have guns and innocent people get killed because they have no way of protecting themselves..
