What most are failing to realize is that gun owners are not really at fault for most of these crimes.
I believe in the last week two more cases of gun violence were reported.
One such man siezed the gun from an officer and opened fire on three of them.

I still believe the problem is not the gun but how easy to take from others these are becoming.
In my hometown a sick and grueling rape went down. And here's the kicker. The assaulters were teenagers. Teenagers cannot legally buy a gun in my state. So how did they get them?
They held the woman at gun point and the rest is history.

In the shooting of the children a gun was siezed from the parent.
Simply put gun owners need to be put in check.
they need to be charged with assisted murder or assualt in certain cases. Make them know that they WILL be held liable for their gun going M.I.A
Here's ANOTHER recent case where a gun wa sillegally obtained by having a neighbor purchase the gun for him. This case was quite sick. He set a trap for the firefighters and then opened fire upon them as they battled the fire he started.

Clearly guns are not to blame. Most of these shooters can not buy one on their own so they resort to stealing or having others obtain it for them.
