Daily dose of DC stupidity

So there's like, all kinds of shootings and stuff in DC yesterday, which is of course impossible, but it still makes idiots cry for more gun control because when defenseless people are slaughtered, or gangbangers eradicate themselves, it's the guns fault:

Both of the people arrested had guns, officials said.

D.C. Council member Marion Barry said officials will have to step up their efforts to get guns off the streets.

Yeah, if you just get those guns off the street then everybody will be peaceful because no one can get hurt! Perfect Plan! Why didn't anyone think of this sooner!

Notice that despite the cops quick response time, they arrived after the bloodshed.
