Third time's a charm.
Mallory, do you believe that new or stricter gun laws will be followed by criminals?
No. By definition a criminals is a law breaker.
And if you really believe the stories you're spouting, why not go along with the solution proposed here. Would a 25 year prison term for illegally buying a gun be a deterrent?
Yes.
Mal is so confusing. Would the deterrent she agrees with here be for dead people only?
And since the criminals won't obey new laws and observe regulations with background checks, what exactly will the point be?
