The anti-gun extremists want gun control to stop criminals from getting guns. Gun control doesn't stop criminals....
Gun control simply adds layers of red tape and increases the legal peril for normal, law abiding gun owners who get scooped up for non-gun crime related paperwork infractions....paperwork infractions created to destroy their lives.
Meanwhile, the criminals get all the illegal guns they want.
The perfect example....Hawaii......an island....with every single gun control law outside of simply banning and confiscating guns....
And this guy ....
You see, Hawaii has pretty much every measure a gun control advocate could reasonably want. It’s also an island, which means no one comes in from another state without having to pass through some kind of security that generally isn’t going to allow guns to come through. They’re as isolated as you can get.
And yet, this happens:
Prosecutors charged Loran Gross of Mountain View with 22 offenses after a massive bust at his home last week Friday.
Detectives found over 27 pounds of dried marijuana, more than 230 live marijuana plants, 14 rifles, and more than 20,000 rounds of ammunition in his possession.
Police also found a semi-automatic hand gun, along with drug paraphernalia
Now, Gross has 10 prior felony convictions, meaning there’s no way he purchased those 14 rifles and the one semi-automatic handgun lawfully. He just couldn’t.
So, with all of Hawaii’s advantages, just how did he manage to get his grubbing little paws on them?
After all, we’re told that gun control works and the only reason places like New York or Chicago are having issues now isn’t because gun control fails, it’s because of all those other states. People just drive the guns into the Big Apple or the Windy City and sell them, thus negating all the good gun control supposedly does.
Yet Hawaii doesn’t have that going on. You simply can’t blame Indiana for criminals owning guns in Honolulu. As previously noted, you can’t get there without going through some kind of security, either via ship or plane. Ain’t no one driving there. If they are, I’m interested to know how.
