I would agree that the Lamestream Media gives far more attention to those who commit crimes of the mass shooter type.  They are also incredibly silent on the more prevalent form of gun violence--gang warfare.  It should be noted that the guns used in gangland crime are almost always illegally obtained so new and different laws and controls would have no effect.

Of course then again anyone who already understands that criminals aren't known for obeying laws would already understand this.

Yeah, except for making the guns, of course.  We are awash in firearms because we have essentially no controls on selling them.  If they can be sold, they will be manufactured.  If they are manufactured, some will be misdirected (usually through theft or bribery) into the illegal market.  That said, weapons that don't exist, because the legal market is tight, can't be misdirected because they don't exist in the first place.

So no.  The argument that illegal weapons can't be deterred is nonsense.  They seem to be deterred in other countries that actually give a damn.

Yes because Prohibition always works.  After all no one can get Heroin or Cocaine.

Try manufacturing guns in your kitchen … especially ones with high velocity ordinance, semiautomatic fire, and large magazines.  Light weight and high reliability are also tricky.
