[Q
Amber Guyger killed a man in his own home with a gun. Surely you think she should spend the rest of her life in jail for her gun crime; right?
So are suggesting that police should have to turn in their service weapon when they leave the workplace because they may do something stupid with it?
Don't be dumb.
I'm suggesting that if you kill an unarmed person in his own home, you should go away for a very long time. Life in prison sounds good. So does at least 30 years. True...people make mistakes. But it's also true that people pay for them.
Nobody would disagree with holding people accountable for any crime that they commit.
The disagreement with the gun control debate comes with taking guns away from law abiding people because some non law abiding thugs may commit crimes with them.
The crime should never be the possession of the firearm. We have a Constitution that says very clearly that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The crime should be what is done with the firearm, no possessing the firearm.
Killing someone who isn’t armed with your gun in their own home is a crime, right?
That depends on the actual situation......do you understand that?
