The Left will tolerate infinite gun crime from their constituents so they clearly don't care about guns as a means of committing crimes. Just look at the annual body counts from Chicago, St Louis, Baltimore etc and they shrug their shoulders and don't even pretend to care.
They only care about guns in the hands of patriots as a means of resisting their tyranny. IE EXACTLY what the 2nd was meant for.
They only get upset when it's a mass shooting, daily shootings don't seem to bother them even like you said the totals in Chicago and such.
Typically that's because long guns are used in mass shootings and those are the weapons they want confiscated (first) because those are the most useful at resisting an oppressive government and they're scarier to many Americans who only have a handgun or shotgun so they're the perfect entry vector for their confiscation tactics
