yea, because laws like that always work
It'd be an improvement. Maybe he still gets a gun, but dude illegally carrying and then (unsafely) doing some backyard target practice got probation, kept his guns and goes on to shoot up MSU.

You know as well as anyone that the 2a fanatics will do everything in their power to make sure everyone has a right to a gun no matter what

Okay now figure out the minors who steal their parents’ guns.
I know you’re being realistic - people will find a way to get a gun despite what the law says.

But are you saying tighter laws aren’t worthwhile?

Well, yes, I can see that spike is being honest and practical here in this one isolated case.

No, he's doing the "moving the goalposts" thing that Verb was constantly doing.

Enforcing the existing laws is worthwhile as well because regulations don't mean shit if they are never applied.

There are legalists out there that don't think felonies should permanently remove any of your rights. I don't expect they are a majority of 2A enthusiasts, most of us aren't particularly consistent here.

Progressives seem to at least realize there's a downside to decarceration, but don't have a workable plan to bubble wrap all of society.

I don't know why murder is illegal. People keep finding ways to kill people despite the law.

There would be fewer murders if violent offenders were kept in jail.

Are you suggesting that jail time makes people more murdery when they get out, or referring to murders that occur inside prisons?

Hmmm... perhaps give violent offenders the option of MAID instead of prison?

I was referring to the former, but both are probably true.
