High school shooting in Parkland FL

[pocaracas]

Our criminals have a lot on the line.  The illegal trade business in the US has to be well into the billions?  10's of billions?  Maybe 100's of billions? So the stakes are pretty high.  It's not about Bob taking a tv from Jim.  Fisticuffs isn't really a viable option when it's billions on the line, rather than Jimmy stealing Ma's nice silverware.

And those people are never giving up their guns.  And if someone tried to make them, they'd shoot whoever did.  And then import some new ones.  It's a bit ironic that the poor neighborhoods get so much financial backing when it comes to killing each other.

I'd wager that criminals of that caliber would get easy access to black market weapons, so it's not that mentality that needs changing.
