the punishment for violations of gun laws should be much, much more severe than they currently are.
There are laws that contradict and infringe on the Second Amendment though, which in a world where the Supreme Court did their job thoroughly and perfectly, would be struck down.
Oh I agree 100%, it is definitely an imperfect system for us in the U.S., but better than many parts of the world. I was referring to laws in place that restrict the use and possession of firearms during the commission of a crime. Far too often lawyers and judges find loopholes to sentencing guidelines and I have seen multiple count offenders walk out with just 10 years probation, no jail, and then get convicted again in 18 months and the probation just extended another 5 or 10 years with STILL no jail time.
I personally support constitutional carry as it was intended by the founding fathers. I live in Georgia and I think we will get there with 5 years or so.
Agreed. And depending on what the Supreme Court does, we might all have Constitutional carry soon.
