I never said that. I said the opposite. Most gun crimes are done with
legally purchased guns. Stolen guns are a very small percentage.
You've mistaken me for Basskisser.

OK perhaps but what are you calling "gun crimes". Are you talking
about acquaintance killings or are you talking about drug killings,
robberies gone bad and gang violence?

Gun crimes by legal gun owners.

BTW, despite your contention otherwise, some of the Columbine weapons
were illegally purchased at a Colorado gun show.

One in a row, what about the rest of them?
Didn't you just say "Most gun crimes are done with
legally purchased guns"

Gotta be black and white for you I suppose.
I just corrected you. I don't care how many you line up.

If you are just talking about nuts and people shooting the ones they
love, registration and background checks mean nothing.
Until they snap, they will be fine upstanding citizens who would pass
any background check and after they go on their shooting spree, there
is no problem figuring out who did it or what gun they used.

Gun registration does little in solving crimes; it reduces it.
Keeps the guns in the hands of fewer people.
Make it a big hassle to own a gun, and "marginal" people are less likely
to get their hands on one. Simple as that.

No, they are just more likely to get one from the gray/black market.
You are starting to sound like those people who want to quarantine
everyone because of ebola. You want to punish 40 million gun owners
because a few thousand of them killed someone and most of them were in
the underworld anyway, beyond the reach of these laws.

BTW who are the "marginal" people? Blacks and Latinos? (statistically
most likely to murder or be murdered)
You will be smoking a turd in liberal purgatory for that one.

"Marginal" was meant to describe those who wouldn't buy a gun if they
had to jump through a few hoops.
Gun nuts like you and Harry would jump.
I would too if I were a gun nut.
