It is probably very easy. I guess they wouldn’t be considered law abiding then.
Some residents look to gun control as some kind of a solution, because they know most of the murders are not about self defense or crime. It is just grasping at straws. In my city we have had so many murders to innocent bystanders, including too many children. Shootout blocks away, where the shooters lived and a bystander was killed. Our citizens want guns to disappear, because how do you protect a child who gets shot and killed just going to school. The crossing guard was too far away to have protected this child. That is why the self defense argument usually doesn’t play. This kind of incident is not unique.

The murders and robberies they can handle; it is DC, after all, where most of the crime that afflicts America originates.
