Are guns a problem? Maybe, maybe not, I don't know, that's a whole field of arguments that nobody is ever going to agree on. Are criminals a problem? Yes. That is something we all agree on. That is something we should be acknowledging and tackling instead of arguing about whether or not the ~97% legal gun owners are going to do something stupid.

Yet another game of political back and forth instead of addressing the common denominator and fixing it. Stop looking for outliers, focus on the common ground.

In the article above you will notice a high percentage of people committing crimes with "borrowed" guns. I don't know what the laws are, but as far as I'm concerned, if you facilitate a friend with a gun and they commit a crime, you should be held accountable as well. It's no different than being in the vehicle when your buddy steals a car. It's not difficult to secure a gun. Don't let others use it.
