The law should be that if you possess a weapon during the commission of a felony crime, you get life (no parole) in prison at hard labor. If you USE or threaten to use a weapon or violence during the commission of a felony crime, you get the death penalty. If ANYONE is injured or dies during the commission of a felony crime, you get the death penalty. All damages, injuries, & deaths occurring during the commission of a felony crime are the sole responsibility of the perp(s).

This might not stop violent crime immediately, but it will end the concept of repeat offenders, vastly lowering the rate of violent crime. Offenders will know their fate before they act; perhaps causing them to think twice before putting that knife of gun in their pocket. Victims will know that harsh punishment has been given the perp. Society will be a much safer after a few generations of thugs dying in prison rather than procreating.

“The law should be that if you possess a weapon during the commission of a felony crime, you get life (no parole) in prison at hard labor.”

The problem with that is that we are all felons multiple times over now. You cannot help but commit felonies, mostly white collar federal ones, every day.

I have talked to several doctors. They all say the laws are now structured so that you cannot practice medicine without committing felonies.

The only question is: Do they want to get YOU for some reason or another.
