"At a time when California cities are seeing a rapid increase in gun homicides, often committed by criminals who get guns through the illegal gun market"

Duuuuuhhhhh. Emphasis on the "committed by CRIMINALS who get guns through the ILLEGAL "gun market". They're ALREADY in violation of the law. These people are so entrenched in non-critical thinking they cannot even see the paradox.

Anybody ever think they might get guns through the illegal immigrant market. Mexican gangs seem to have plenty.
