I guess we are all just inchoate criminals. Its too bad we don't know who will commit gun crimes when we sell them to people. We just have to wait and see who points one at someone and pulls the trigger.

Ok, how about "that's what happens when people with criminal intent carry guns".
The shooter knew what he was going to do before he did it. Isn't that a crime in and of itself?

No. So far our thoughts are still our own. The thoughts plus an affirmative step toward completing the crime may constitute an attempt, however.

An honest question from a non-lawyer.

A conspiracy requires more than one person planning and carrying out the crime. If he acted alone, there is no conspiracy.

Understood and thanks. I probably should have known that.

Conpsiracy is simply an agreement to commit a crime. The crime is the agreeing which requires more than just thought.

It is not necessary for the crime to be accomplished or even any step to be take toward it for a conspiracy. You are mixing this up with an accessory.
