We have no shortage of discussions on gun control founded on the basis of disarming criminals. The tide seems to push that as long as guns are easily accessible to law abiding citizens, criminals can get them as well. So making them inaccessible to everyone will be default make them inaccessible to criminals, right?
How about we make the criminals inaccessible to guns. Hmmm... did someone say "prison?" Hey, if the System thinks they are fit to walk the streets, drive a car, enter the workforce, and use public restrooms, why not give them gun rights, too? Everybody yells "NO!" when asked should felons be allowed to own a gun, but no one asks should rapists and murderers be allowed to re-enter society. I think you would hear the same resounding "NO!"
