Well not true . Since the last year of George Bush , gun violation prosecutions have seen a significant drop , as much as 42% lower . Kinda surprising for a gun control advocate like Obama . Makes you wonder what the #^&#^&#^&#^& he is doing .

Are they being supplied from? Legal owners ? or irresponsible owners? i think below gives us our answer ...
1.4 million firearms were stolen during household burglaries and other property crimes over the six-year period from 2005 through 2010, according to a report released today by the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS). This number represents an estimated average of 232,400 firearms stolen each year— about 172,000 stolen during burglaries and 60,300 stolen during other property crimes.

Guy on my hockey team is head of NB gun unit. He has been very busy lately. I asked him last nite where they are comin from and he said most of them are comin from house robberies or the such. He said a lot of the guns they take off street or used in the soarin murder rate are stolen from old family members that dont even know they are gone. A lot comes back to laws regarding proper securing and storage of firearms.

The preferred gun is a ghost gun that has no record.
And when I say ghost gun I am referring to guns that are made in the shacks of poverty ridden third world countries like the Philippines. Exact copies of legal guns with no record that would cause arrest if the police find you in possession of a gun.

I assume those numbers also include suicide and accidental deaths by firearm or is it just the homicide rate?

I'd bet if you took out suicides and gang related incidents the #s would fall dramatically.
Liberal media won't delve into that though. Doesn't fit the agenda.
