Most are which is why we should focus on gun control to keep them off the streets instead of [b]divisive things[/b] like this topic that we have no control over. [/quote]

You don't really GAF about gun control if you dismiss prosecuting criminals for having illegal guns as "divisive things."

You just want to stick it to legal gun owners because you're mad about urban crime and don't want to confront it.[/quote]

NP but both trafficking guns into DC (typically straw purchases from easier to purchase states) AND prosecuting criminals locally are problems.

It's well established by gun tracing research that most guns used in urban crime in blue cities come from lax gun law states.

It's also clear that in DC particularly, gun prosecution is way too lax.

We should focus on both. I believe in 2024 that we can focus on addressing both types of criminals in both locations rather than picking and choosing only this criminal and that criminal. We can focus on both A + B.

Picking only A or only B means hypocrisy on both sides of the equation and political spectrum.[/quote]

Point-of-sale gun control and point-of-use gun control (followed by prosecution).[/quote]

What is "point of use" control? [/quote]

The 2A pro-gun faction slander it as "stop and frisk."[/quote]
