Borderline? You’re wrong. They’re abject morons. No question about it. Here we have the police trying. Yet we have the politicians doing nothing to increase the penalties for firearm possession. Considering most of the homicides since 1997 has involved a firearm, you would think they would make the punishments for firearms worse. But nah. It is as if those politicians benefit from the criminality here.
