Ah the fun times of the gun debate. One side says that owning a gun is their god given right. The other says that limiting guns will limit gun related crimes. Each year 6000 gun related homicides go unsolved. This doesn't include other crimes where a gun is used but no one dies, such as assaults or robberies. The percentage of solved homicides has dropped from 90% solved to 65% solved since the 1960s. But I think that during this debate over guns, we're missing an essential truth. Sure if guns are limited, violent criminals will just find a different way to kill people. And sure criminals will just find another way to get guns. Here's the thing. Gun registration is a tool to be used AFTER a crime.
