8. I think the "gun control fans" sincerely believe in some kind of weird "Trickle Down" gun control

They really think that reducing/eliminating/banning lawful gun ownership will "eventually" have some sort of impact on criminals.

Fewer law abiding people with guns in their homes means there are fewer out there to steal.

Any criminal activity that results from an unarmed and defenseless populace is just collateral damage ... and since they owned guns, they probably deserved it anyway.
