Stricter gun control is only making it harder for honest citizens that just want to protect themselves to get the guns.

The ones being used for a large majority of homicides aren't from people that get them through legal means.
Right now there are legal guns, legal guns that are sold or stolen, and black market guns.

You take away the legal guns and all that's left are the black market ones. It shouldn't be too tough drawing the conclusion that firearms would be scarcer for criminals as well under strict gun control

And with Mexico and Canada bordering us (both with strict gun laws of their own), there is no direct easy access to bringing them into the country

you certainly wouldn't have any of these white, middle class suburban teens shooting up schools with their dad's Beretta
