My point still stands, if you need a different one with the same point here: We can't stop people from driving drunk so we should just legalize drunk driving.

Any no, it ISN'T that difficult to obtain a firearm illegally. They are not usually expensive as you are trying to show. Illegal guns are normally stolen, so therefore cost to the seller is zero, so if you sell if for a cheap $200.00, then you are making a pretty darn good profit. if someone really wants a gun, it is not difficult at all to obtain one pretty quickly, and cheaply.

It is still an extra step, one in which he can get caught. By your logic it is easy to buy drugs illegally so we should just legalize them. Or it's easy to find child pornography so we should just legalize it. I'm sorry your logic is unsound here.

If you look at the background, only the Glock was purchased legally. His other pistol they have YET to find where he obtained it from.

I could of swore I heard the police chief recently say both guns were purchased legally.
We can't always stop this sort of thing from happening but just because we can't stop something doesn't mean we shouldn't try to stop it. This is why we have increased our security in the US. We can't stop the terrorists but we can stop some of them. The whole we can't always do something so do nothing attitude is completely ridiculous.
