Es, every, and I mean EVERY time someone makes a post about something even remotely involving a firearm, you start preaching about how evil they are.

They're tools, inanimate objects, and cannot harm anyone without outside intervention (i.e. someone pulling the trigger).

The stats you posted are hypebole, as is everything else you post on this topic.

It's a simple matter, really, a multi-time convicted felon (at 22 this should raise alarms to begin with) acquires a weapon illegally (whoever sold it to him should be going to jail as an accessory to murder) and uses it in the manner one would expect from a felon.Shouldn't have happened, and had the law been followed wouldn't have happened.

Preach all you want about guns, but the implement isn't the issue here. It doesn't matter how many laws you pass, they are going to get broken. There are over 22,000 gun control laws on the books in the US. If they aren't enforced, they cannot work.

Instead of complaining about the inanimate object, which is completely nonsensical, why not complain about the felon?
