Don't forget that a lot of the guns already on the street are stolen from people who have a state issued license to own said gun. So, is it the state to blame for issuing a license to someone who was robbed, or is the person who was robbed at fault for losing the gun?
Is the state to blame for the automobile that was stolen from a person who had a state issue license, and said automobile was used in a hit and run? Or is the person who owned the vehicle at fault?
Clearly, in the case of he automobile, we hold the criminal at fault. Not owner. Not the state. Not the manufacturer. Not the dealer.
The same should be with guns. It's the person who uses it illegally that is to blame. No one else.
And, yes, guns are made to kill. Handguns are sold to private citizens for self defense. They are purchased with the intent of killing a home intruder.
