Cops: Gunman kills 1, fires on police, no officers hurt

Cops: Gunman kills 1, fires on police, no officers hurt


How much more proof do our lawmakers need for getting guns out of the hands of gangs?

It is apparent that this menace cares nothing for life. The odds are great that the possibility of this buffoon has priors. So how was it possible he could obtain a gun? The odds are great he is a gang member. So he should be charged under the New Illinois RICO law. It is obvious changes must come to the current sentencing laws we have on the books. If you have a person of such ilk, that fires on law enforcement officers at the drop of a hat, why can't a mandatory 100 year sentence be imposed? I'm betting even legal scholars would have no problem with such a law. It can't be deemed "cruel or unusual" because the violator of such a law, could care less because of their actions in the first place. If you have no regard for human life, law enforcement or civilian, one would find it highly hypocritical of such a scumbag crying about rights. They didn't care then, why bother caring now? The only thing they do deserve, is the trial, and conviction.

So in all honesty, how much more proof do you lawmakers need?
