Interesting how you always blame guns but not the criminals. After all, you don’t even want traffic stops in the city where folks can be found with illegal guns. Why is that?

While defending and enabling criminals, and saying we’re not safe anywhere. The logic is great stuff.

Why restrict gun ownership instead of car ownership in your example?

Lots of talk, now let’s see some action

Funeral shooting in Brighton Heights reflects cycle of violence and spiral of pain, advocates and officials say

“Homicide rates in Pittsburgh have reached a seven-year high, the Tribune-Review reported Thursday. With youth so often in the cross”

At least 2 have been arrested. Perhaps folks will finally wise up and report the violent criminal losers versus looking the other way.

Two teens arrested for mass shooting at Pittsburgh funeral

Because people aren`t shooting up schools, synagogues, grocery stores etc. with cars.

You're saying guns left in cars is an easy way for criminals to obtain guns. You propose banning guns to remove the possibility for guns to be stolen from cars. We can instead ban cars and remove the possibility of guns being stolen from cars.

Do you think Robert Bowers drove a car or took public transportation to Tree of Life?

Shouldn't we admit that we are talking about two different issues with gun violence, though? With Bowers, I think we are looking for strengthened red flag laws, as well as (potentially) limitations on high-powered rifles with massive clips, etc. etc. Not sure if there were any "red flags" in Bowers case, but wasn't there, in the last 5 years or so, a very wise politician who said something about these situations, i.e., that we should just take the guns away, and then handle due process after? Refresh my memory, who was this wise politician?

Except they use cars for drive by shootings, carjackings, to get to places where they commit armed robberies, etc… Yet you don’t want traffic stops in the city which could help arrest criminals before and after that have drugs, illegal guns, etc…
