This just goes to show all the shit smuggled in from the USA. Yet they going after the firearms locked in safes in secured homes owned by licensed and vetted people. What a backwards thinking inept Government… smfh

they don't give a shit about actually affecting gun crime. They very much give a shit about appearing to affect gun crime. Very different things. One is easy and highly visible. The other is slightly harder, and largely invisible. Guess which option the politicians like?

This. 1000000% this.

I've always said, we share the world's longest undefended border with the world's largest arms manufacturer. With that, we will never stop the flow of illegal guns. Ever. Period.

The government can definitely do more to curb the flow, which will actually have positive affects on gun crime here, but like you said that's difficult and takes lots of effort and money, so naturally it'll never happen.
