Why are we wasting so much money trying to steal from legal gun owners, is there a problem with legal guns being used in crime?

As far as I was aware its bad vetting for immigration thats causing most of the problems, as they couldnt keep up with the mass immigration we did, as their budgets werent increased.

You may benefit from getting a little MORE aware. You're parroting some Polievre, there. 1st-gen immigrants are very law-abiding in general.

Am I reading this wrong? Perhaps my reading comprehension is bad, but I didnt think so.
