See, that's the nature of criminals; they don't obey the law. You can prohibit anyone you want from owning a gun but only the otherwise law-abiding will follow the prohibition. Do you think that someone on the prohibited persons list who is intent on committing a mass shooting will say, "Oh, geeze, I was going to murder 20 people today but it's against the law for me to own a gun so I guess I won't do it."It‘s pretty damned clear. Make mental health providers mandatory reporters so they HAVE to report their mentally Ill patients to be put into the databases that won’t allow them to purchase guns. The gun control laws don’t work because people like you don’t enforce them, you just make excuses for lunatics and criminals until they kill someone and then you blame the tool they used.
I share your distrust of liberal gun-grabbersJust show me where in the Constitution the authority to ban anyone, felon or otherwise, from having guns for life. And show me any statistic to suggest that such a ban has any impact on crime. Gun laws only serve to disarm the law-abiding and to make it easier for the criminal to attack the law-abiding.
We lock up the wrong people.We lock up 2 million people, we have another 7 million on probation or parole, and we have 70 million Americans with a police record.
We don't have enough prison space to lock people up for merely committing a crime with a gun.
Sadly, you're correct about one thing. All it takes is for Justice Thomas, may God preserve him and hold a high place in Heaven for him, or Justice Alito to retire from the Court by falling over neaI share your distrust of liberal gun-grabbers
Unfortunately the Constitution means whatever 5 unelected lawyers on Mount Olympus say it means
Presently the majority agrees with you, but that could change
Or at least the SC mostly agrees with you
On some things it doesent, such as allowing children, criminals, or insane people to own firearms
and I’m grateful for that
But it could all change with the death of one black robe and the appointment of another gun grabbing lib
I wishYou're wrong about what the Constitution means. The Constitution means what was intended by those who drafted it and by those who voted to ratify it
While I completely agree with long prison terms for major gun crimes, I would also advocate long prison sentences for individuals found with stolen guns.The way you drop gun crime? You lock up the criminals who commit gun crime...for really long periods of time....
this has the added advantage of not bothering normal gun owners because they don't use their guns for crime or violence...
If they really wanted to bring crime down to civilized levels, they wouldn’t even need to reinvent the wheel to do so.
Florida had a violent crime crisis long ago. Then they implemented a 10-20-Life law. Bad guys toting guns in the commission of violent crimes got a 10-year sentencing enhancement on top of the underlying crime. There were no options for plea bargains, probation or early release. This was hard time.
Thugs discharging their guns picked up twenty extra years, effectively taking them out of circulation for a generation. And if their shots wounded or killed anyone, they got a 25-years to Life enhancement, keeping them locked up for even longer.
With a few short years under 10-20-Life, Florida’s firearm violent crime numbers fell to historic lows.
Chicago’s Violent Crime problem could be solved in a matter of months if Illinois political leaders really wanted it to stop
We ridiculed Murder City USA Mayor Brandon Johnson’s clumsy, dim-witted proposal to buy votes to reduce the rampant violent crime that’s leaving his city a total cesspool of crime and v…www.gunssavelife.com
But....why wouldn't democrats want to lower the gun crime and murder rates?
Could it be that they believe that high gun crime and gun murder rates give them the best chance they have to ban and confiscate guns?
Errrr...yup...........
I don't know about your teachers, but mine pointed out that while deterrence doesn't work against criminals, long jail sentences DO prevent them from committing additional crimes. Criminals break the law because they honestly believe that they are either too smart to get caught, or simply don't care because penalties are too low to be meaningful.While I completely agree with long prison terms for major gun crimes, I would also advocate long prison sentences for individuals found with stolen guns.
The other thing is that long terms don't necessarily deter crime.
My degree is in Criminal Justice and I recall that one of our criminology books and the professor, stated that in the Middle-Ages, pickpockets were publicly hung for that crime and while the hangings were going on, pickpockets would work the crowd. As the most serious punishment one can receive didn't deter pickpockets at the public hanging of pickpockets, I have my reservations that longer sentencing would deter the criminal.
If one looks at Switzerland and that 30% of the population owns firearms, yet crime is minimal we should more closely examine the difference between their society and that of the United States (not that we have the most gun murders in all nations).
