Tough shit.Really? Then go to some articles about the problem they have in Chicago. The police and all authorities there arrest criminals with guns on a daily basis. Why are those arrests not deterring criminals from carrying guns? Because they get a slap on the hand in court. Judges are pressured into keeping people out of jail except those who commit the most serious of crimes. There's no room. So if somebody gets busted with a gun, they get five months in jail and get out in two or three on good behavior if that.
Correct.. But they were able to confiscate the gun. They should round up every one in the streets where these gangs hang around then search and confiscate.
On what reasonable cause do they have to do a search and seizure?
Illegal possession of firearms.
So only suspected gang members they would search? I think you have a potential Constitutional issue. Would these gang members be white, well dressed and anywhere in the city? Police would search only on the basis of black people in only certain neighborhoods in the city. They could also stop black motorists and search their cars.
Racial profiling? Unconstitutional.
But wont the liberals be screaming about a violation of rights and if a white cop kills a black kid while trying to confiscate his gun. All liberal hell would break loose.
Liberals want a solution as long as it violates everyone's rights.
