The worst sort of laws are written in haste with a sense that something
must be done.
That this law is something and therefore we must do that!
No.
The undue speed that this bill was presented and passed in the
senate, with a barrage of spurious amendments to prevent the core
language of the bill to be carefully considered is shameful.
If the core language had been considered more carefully the
glaring State and Federal Constitutional problems would have been
debated and the language edited.
This bill has serious problems with regards to privacy, due
process and illegal search and seizure. Never mind the right to
keep and bear arms.
This bill, if passed, will be bad law and that doesn't lead to
justice. Bad laws create injustice.
Even if the issues I mentioned above weren't present, this bill
ultimately fails to accomplish the goals stated for its passage.
It will not prevent another mass murder. It will not even slow
the next murderer down.
The murderer broke how many existing laws before they fired the
first shot?
The problem, not addressed by this bill, is the law enforcement
agency called to address the murderer's law breaking did nothing.
Nothing.
They failed in their responsibility to enforce the law and
protect the community.
For what? To game the system on crime statistics to let the
school district get more funding.
They lied and people died.
Where's the passage in this bill that punishes this wanton
disregard of our laws and human life?
Thank you
Well said.
ReplyDeleteToo bad they probably won't read it. There's probably some overworked intern getting the emails and tallying yes vs. no responses.
On the off chance it's read... I tried to write sensibly.
