“Virtually all murders or killings are done with legally purchased items.”
I thought most murders in the USA were committed by gang bangers and thugs in Chicago, NYC, LA, using illegal/stolen guns. Their weapons, in these cases, were already illegally obtained and possessed under literally hundreds of local and federal laws, while our leftist tyrants continue to turn these scum loose after every single arrest while they push for still more “laws” in their real quest, to remove guns only from honest law abiding citizens like us. At least thats the way I have always viewed it.
I suspect the contradiction is because most of the gang killings are simply never solved, so the method of weapon acquisition can’t be determined conclusively, even though we all kind of intuitively know ...
The point I was trying to make was the headline spin that Gun Laws wouldn’t stop this violence but outlawing and seizing all guns would.
