There is a lot of argument on how to solve gun crimes.
I have a solution with out gun control.
Pass a bill where If a person committed a crime with a gun or in possession of a gun. Automatic 25 year with our probation added with the crime.
Even though this is pretty harsh it will stop all these dumb gangbangers running around waving guns. Or at least lock some of them up.
Kinda the same thing was done with Cat burglary

That seems quite harsh. Might as well repeal the Second Amendment while you're at it! /sarcasm

Sounds absolutely insane. And I wouldnt have done so in the first place.
Guns are guns. You could suggest enforcing community safehouses to force citizens to store them, but then theres robberies. And the fact most guns criminals use aren't legally licensed in the first place.
Or you could say, sure, unimaginable increase in sentencing if you hold a gun, but that just means at BEST, more knives and shit would get used. And serious criminals would keep using guns.
Guns are basically above the law, like it or not. Theres no single, LOGICAL way to resolve the problem. That's why theyre still a problem.
Sounds like a good idea, but locking up so many people for 25 years is impractical. So it should be included with laws permitting certain work programs in prisons, so essentially all the wannabe gangstas will live like black folk in the deep south back in the day.

I was going back and forth with myself with an idea last night.
On one hand, you ARE allowed to possess licensed firearms nation-wide and are required to have proper training for them. I do not have any specifications to number or caliber at this time. On the other hand, you are also automatically bumped-up the front of the list when it comes to the draft or reserves; you don't have to attend boot camp in advance but, by already owning and demonstrating disciplined gunnery skills, you are considered better suited to assisting the formal armed forces right off the bat.
At the same time, people caught misusing projectile weapons - for murder, for example - will be charged with treason under the following argument: legal possession of a weapon automatically elevates them as a draftee into the armed forces thus that the crime counts as "a soldier intending and carrying-out harm against one's own countrymen." Legality of the weapon in question is not considered as part of the defendant's trial but is, instead, handled as a separate issue.
>>6 will be charged with treason
You can't even trump up charges of treason for members of Congress or presidents who don't willfully follow the mandate of the Constitution. Good luck trying to get some nutter who decides to use his weapon in the wrong way on a charge of treason.
