Criminals are out there committing heinous crimes, some with stolen guns.

Some of us choose to carry to have a chance to protect our selves from said criminals.

Somehow, because some of us have guns, it's our fault the criminals are doing all this because of our guns.

"If guns are outlawed, outlaws would have a harder time finding and affording guns."

Yeah, that "logic" works great, it just calls for honest people to remain defenseless in the gun controllers vague "hope" that eventually bad guys won't have quite as many guns.

Just like they do in Mexico and it works so well there.
