I've said before I'm for magazine limits. Perhaps there should be a federal law for that, because even though they are illegal they are not all that hard to get when they are legal in so many states.
Honestly, I don’t know but I believe we passed a law limiting it to 10 or 12 rounds. But we also don’t have a huge problem with gun violence where I live. Never been broken into, never been assaulted, never felt the need to have a gun for protection. Just not something I think about as something I need to be or feel safe. But more than one death is too many and we’ve had more than one.
I have five kids and I love my wife to death, I do not ever want to spend one single second in jail. I own firearms to hunt, shoot and protect my family. Yeah a lot of people say what are the chances? Well I d rather be prepared than not prepared at all.
I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0 -

Oh. So you're saying you'd shoot him, but won't because you don't want to go to jail?
I guess this lends weight to the notion that heavy sentences are most assuredly a deterrent to committing crimes.
