I'd say that stealing guns is THE way that criminals get guns.
But if a person breaks into your home while you're away and steals all your valuables (including guns)...then how do you "educate" someone to stop that from happening?
Most folks keep their gun somewhere that they can get to it quickly if needed (the closet, under the bed, etc.) in case of someone breaking in while they are at home.
And even if you put your guns in a locked case or gun safe...criminals routinely just take the safe or the case.
Same if you lock your jewelry or cash in a safe. They just rip the safe out and take it with them.
That's why I say the ONLY way to handle this is for Congress to repeal the 2nd amendment (not saying I want that to happen, just saying that it's the only way that would work). Then the govt. could make all the gun control laws it wants to...including banning all guns.
Yes, guns would still be in the hands of criminals. But at least that MIGHT stop something like Sandy Hook from happening because that crazy fuck's mom wouldn't have been able to have a gun for him to steal.
