What get me is the families of criminals that got capped are the biggest anti gun people.
it is usually what you see is a black or hispanic lady on TV claiming that handgun need to be banned because there son get shot and killed.
in many cases what you do not hear is the dead son was a gang member or got shot while committing a crime.
there have been two times where i live that the mothers of dead criminal have been used by the anti gun people trying to get guns banned.
i was there right after the shootings as a EMT and know what the police found.
in both cases i wrote letters to the local newspaper outing these people.
i have been to many gang shootings that the family claimed that the person shot was not a gang member.
on these people it was found that many had gang tattoos. if they were not gang members why did we find the gang tattoos.
i know that handgun control inc actively trys to recruit family members of criminal that have been shot while committing crimes.
