Real America?
Where would that be? I live in rural Nevada. Reno is thirty miles to the West. We're pretty real here. The crazy laws in the East of this nation are not meant to control criminals because they will not be controlled. Gun laws are designed to control those who do not commit crimes with guns. I do not know why gun laws are not written with such verbiage as "It shall be illegal and a crime punishable by such methods as..." XYZ "for any person to possess a weapon for the express purposes of committing a crime with such weapon." You see, what this does is hold the innocent guiltless until he takes the decision to become a criminal. The laws they pass now make you a crook just for owning a gun. The laws pre-suppose you will commit a crime just because you own or want to own a gun. We call this fallacy liberalism...
