This is true, but the GUN is NOT responsible!
A Gun is steel, wood, lead, plastic, oil and chemical propellants. It has no consciousness or free will.
Would everyone be reacting to the tool used for dealing death, being a stolen item, if it the tool was a car, baseball bat, or crowbar?
People act like "Guns" are some sort of magical thing capable of dealing death, were nothing else in the world can.... It is Stupid!
If this murderer had used a stolen, empty beer bottle to commit his crimes, would we be discussing the source of the beer bottle?
Gun or Beer Bottle, it doesn't leap up and commit murder!
Do YOU know where all your empty beer bottles are?!!!!

If said immigrant had not found the steel, wood, lead, plastic, oil and chemical propellants with no consciousness or free will, would that women be dead today?
Interesting that you guys keep running from the truth; it is the available number of guns, like this one - floating around and getting into the wrong hands that causes gun violence to go up. Guns are quite inanimate in themselves, but when a two year old picks one up and shoots himself, that gun becomes the problem that we're talking about. That same problem, of an errant firearm, is exactly why that woman is dead.
