Criminals have no such delay. Violent criminals can get a gun within minutes. This is the intention of the liberals: seize guns from non-violent citizens while leaving them in the hands of violent criminals so they can waltz right in and take what is “rightfully” theirs from their “oppressors.”
In the case of Kate Steinle’s illegal alien killer, you can just help yourself to someone else’s gun. Extra points for stealing it from a federal employee.
