The way I see it, a soon-to-be criminal isn't going to care if the gun he's going to kill someone with was obtained legally or not.
People need to realize banning guns won't decrease the crimerate, but actually INCREASE it, and I don't mean violence either.
The fact is, you're going to end up with a shit-ton of illegal firearms to deal with, as well as people obtaining them via illegal methods. All of these are crimes, thus unnessecarily increasing the police force's workload on something not as important as, say, a rapist or mugger.

Bear in mind I'm against gun prohibition,
but that's a pretty stupid thing to say.
If someone wanted to kill someone and not get caught then they'd use a "disposable" or an illegal gun.
Otherwise, if someone just lost their shits and decided to go on a murder spree, they don't care if they're caught or not.
It'd be harder to obtain a firearm illegally than it is to do it legally.

I think you misunderstood me.
By "soon-to-be criminal" I meant one who KNEW they were about to commit a crime. They're not going to care if their tool of destruction is legal or not. They're about to kill/rob somebody, for crying out loud.

Ones easier to obtain than the other though.

The only time I'll be surprised anymore is when there's a shooting on the ISS.
Or Atlantis.
Or there's a bunch of robots ripping the White House up.
It's sad to see people die, but I'm pretty sure there were shootings every single day wherein someone died/got injured by a stray bullet, and it never went mainstream because it wasn't in front of a landmark.
