That is the problem and there are many reasons for it.
Our society is innundated with gangs, from the MS-13 gangs of Mexico, to the Crips and Bloods.
These individuals have access to arms the average citizen does not.
Much of that is from illegal sources both into and out of Mexico that aren't over the counter firearms from any local gun store.
