You don't have to find all their guns.

The beauty of gun ban and black market means there is little chance the small-time gangbangers can afford to buy guns and the guns they do have will be sold to the highest bidders, most likely organized criminals who are not interested in small-time turf war.

Does that mean the daughter belongs in the crossfire? How about taking away the gangbangers guns?

Sure does fit the bill for a gang related shooting. Totally banger MO. It can't be pinned on racism or an act by "White supremacists." No, this sounds like straight up drugs, gangs, hood rats with illegally obtained weapons (probably heisted from a military base here or in Mexico) smuggled in by the cartels, purchased with drug money and the wounded father crossed the gang the shooters belong to in some way.

Thing is this sort of thing happens every single day in cities all across the country. Like this and worse. But as it's been said that doesn't advance the neo Dem leftist agenda. It's not criminals like this they want to disarm. This sort of thing has absolutely NOTHING to do with the second amendment and honest citizens possessing LEGAL firearms. The agenda the neo Dems and their media lapdogs are pushing is not about criminal misuse of illegal firearms.

Thy would have us believe that these thugs get their guns at Cabela's or from licensed legal firearms retailers or the really plumb moronic theory they get them from gun shows that bypass federal regulations for background checks and the associated federal paperwork. Which is an out and out LIE.

In Chicago, you would have to house them in Soldier Field....they have a lot of gang members. On the bright side after a week you'd have about half as many.

Yeah, we just fly mighty mouse over the city with one of those funky U-shaped giant cartoon magnets with a switch on the side labeled illegal guns.

Then he throws the whole mess into the sun.

Problem solved.

P.S. ACME corporation is on the job and hire the mouse, do NOT hire the coyote to do this.

And then tell the criminals not to steal them or any other guns back. Sheer genius.
