Quote by: brien Try punishing the criminal who uses the firearm in the commission of a crime with these penalties:
Ist offense: 10 years minimum, no parole.
2nd offense: 20 year minimum, no parole
3rd Offense: Life no parole.
And if a criminal discharges a firearm during the commission of a crime and wounds an innocent person, then he/she should be sentenced for 20 years no parole. Of course murder w/ a firearm should be life no parole.
Enact these penalties and I am certain we will see the incidence of firearms related crimes subside. |

Of course, get tough on crime!! Now why didn't I think of that??
Oh wait, that's right... because we've already done that. In fact we've been doing it for years, and it's turned the U.S. into the new Gulag Archipelago, with the largest per capita prison population in the world. Here in California our
prisons are so over-crowded we can't build them fast enough... or afford to keep building them.
And yet we're
STILL among the most violent nations on earth.
Got a plan B, brien??
