How about severe penalties for illegal weapons possession? Make possession of such a
federal offense - minimum five years.

Most illegal purchases are a federal crime now had have been since the
Johnson administration, including BAO's "hopping across the line to
buy a gun at a show" (at least 2 counts for each gun)

There are plenty of laws, just not a lot of enforcement




I'm talking possession, not purchase. I think federal judges might be a bit more
severe in their punishments.


Here you go. This report has only the states that require a license or
permit to have a handgun. It lists the penalties for possession without
a license/permit and also lists penalties for minors and convicted felons.

It says that only about 13 states have laws that require a license or
permit. No penalties are shown for those states without a license or
permit requirement because ... well, it's not against the law. Crazy.

Funny... in the section: "Criminal Penalties for Illegal Possession of Handguns by Convicted Felons", in SC, TX, FL and CT it's a felony, but in MD it's just a misdemeanor. Don't want to be too hard on those poor felons, eh?
