Statistics show they can't be trusted with guns, they are freed, and are tolerated.
So, should we take the high road, or the pragmatic one ?
Depends on your definition of pragmatic...If our sensible and reasonable solutions are incarceration or death for violent criminals, then yes, pragmatic it is. They should not be tolerated. That's my version of being pragmatic in their cases.
Since they are being released I say they have a "V" tattooed on their foreheads, like the Nazis in Inglorious Bastards. If they have the V, no guns for them.
Clear out the potheads and child support inmates and we will have plenty of room for all violent maniacs. You know, the real criminals.
Violent criminals are the only people that should not be allowed to have guns, IMO. Of course they should not be free, anyway.
