But what does it matter? The gun cabal works to make sure criminals have access to guns. They could support background checks, but then they couldn't profit off of criminality. You all could work here for background checks instead of mobilizing to make sure guns are proliferated throughout the city. You can hardly put up the canard about illegal gun owners when you celebrate the failure of legislation designed to keep guns out of your hands. Your also lamenting guy buy backs here. The idea that some guns might be voluntarily surrendered by illegal guns owners prompts great mourning here.

Once again you affirm your complete lack of compassion for victims of gun violence. What else is new?
