What do they propose, i don't see anything in the link that would be punishing lawful gun owners Will.
The problem with ramping the sentences up so high is some criminals would maybe kill rather than be caught in some cases. I agree there needs to be a bigger deterrent but i don't know what that could be.
Although understandable i don't think airguns should be in the same classification as firearms...yes i do know the power of those things, before anybody jumps on me...
