Folks: let's say a bill comes along that adds a 2 year penalty enhancement for anybody caught doing burglary who also steals a gun.
Are you for or against?
This is NOT a theoretical discussion - I'm now a paid lobbyist for CCRKBA, remember? This concept is part of a bill in Calif right now. Before supporting it we'd need some really bad bits stripped out but I want to know what y'all think of penalty enhancements if it wasn't connected to any other issue (good or bad).
NOTE: the question might come down to "do this, or have to face nastier in-home locks/safes requirements", esp. here in California. Keep that in mind.
That said, I really want to know any DOWNSIDES to a gun theft penalty enhancement law, as you guys see it. OR if there's massive support, I need to know that too.
