    Most mass shooters like this aren’t criminals beforehand. An overwhelming majority of them acquired their firearms legally.
    Because guess what? It’s fucking hard for 9th grade little Billy to get his hands on an illegal firearm.
    Reduce the number of legal firearms will reduce the number of mass shootings by directly reducing the number of people that would commit a mass shooting and by reducing the number of stolen firearms in circulation.

      Don’t you understand? All 19 year olds are Jason Bourne and have access to the network and funds needed to get guns in a future where they are banned.

      I am very confident that if I tried to buy a gun illegally that I would fail at it and go to jail for a long time.

        I’m pretty sure most of us wouldn’t even make it far enough to go to jail, unless we asked for guns from a honeypot online. Like I legitimately don’t even know who I would ask to get started on being able to buy one illegally.

          And yet somehow someway every single person who is desperate enough and poor enough to attempt a home robber will be able to buy guns that the government is actively looking for. And the kinda of people who are unstable enough to shot up a school will have enough stability to raise who knows how msny thousands of dollars to buy a AR-15 from the underworld.

          Makes no freaken sense.
