"Not all murderers"

As if this is just a few isolated incidents, things so seldom as to be overall insignificant.

The article isn't about a few people being set free though they can be prosecuted for serious gun crimes, it's about the practice being so habitual as to be a de facto nullification of the law.

Yet, we're supposed to embrace laws that will make peaceable people into criminals or disarmed sheep as we watch violent criminals turned back out on to the streets.

The cynical side of me thinks the pro-Control advocates want violent criminals to be given free rein so they may exploit the ensuing mayhem to argue for gun control. Perhaps you could save me from this cynicism by answering for me:

What is the virtue of freeing the violent while disarming their victims?
