Dozens of handguns and shotguns were among items stolen by thieves who raided cargo containers aboard trains near downtown Los Angeles for months, authorities said.

Only a handful of the 82 guns known to have been stolen from trains passing through Lincoln Heights have been recovered.

Steal what you can't purchase legally

These handguns have been preemptively lost in a terrible boating accident.

I’m sure Sacramento will pass more strict gun laws for lawful gun owners which will fix this mess.

Time to punish thieves like in Middle Eastern countries: chop off hands and feet. I know the eighth amendment forbids it, but other tactics to deter stealing aren’t working.

Democrats have mane a career of doing so.

Joey and pals wink everyone has a family plan.

[Huskrrrr]

Steal a gun, lose a trigger finger.

“Steal what you can’t purchase legally”

And then use them to steal what you can buy legally.

[rktman]

Well at least they’re required to do background checks on transfers so there is that. /$

Yep, steal what you can and sell it on the black market.
Money comes from many sources both legal and illegal.

[Who is John Galt?]

Seems like the French occasionally did something similar, centuries ago, when they captured English archers...

Simply prosecuting in jailing people who steal would be a great start

According to Biden, the constitution is not absolute.

Partner, you ain't lying!!!

In the Middle East you can tell who the thieves really are when they get out of the house since they have one hand missing.

We need to make harder for folks to steal. It should be hard for folks to steal.

But I do not agree with their supposed religion. Mohammad copied everything to make this dumb religion of the Mooselimbs.

A gun buy-back program should immediately clear up this catastrophy!

[SgtHooper]

Pull a number of Dudley Doorights, and that’d stop right now!

[larrytown]

Easy gun-control reply - the problem is that you can purchase them in Tennessee. If they weren’t legal to purchase anywhere, they wouldn’t have been on the train and able to be stolen.

The trains should move slowly through those regions, accompanied by infantry with clear orders to shoot looters on sight.
