THE TRAGEDY OF GUN CONTROL

Over the past week since the horrible tragedy in Arizona more and more people again are blaming the Republican and the NRA for the violent acts of a MAD MAN.

Truth be told the state of Arizona had deemed Jared Loughner as mentally unstable and not fit to purchase  a firearm.  However records show that someone did not put this information in the state's data base and as a result the information was not available to prevent this tragedy.

The fact that this individual passed a "FBI and DHS" background check only proves that this individual did not have a criminal record!  Had the paper work that was done by Arizona been put into the system determining mental fitness the system would have worked! The person who failed to do their duties should be tracked down and tried for involuntary manslaughter and dereliction of duties.

Gun control is not the solution to the problems.  The solution is putting in place laws that impose harsher punishment and sentencing for those who commit crimes.  The American Justice system is over burdened and the system is breaking down! What we need to do is demand imposing the death penalty and public executions.  Stop allowing repeat offenders and once and for all stop making life in jail for some better than life on the streets!

We as a nation spend on average $28K per prisoner to be housed, fed and provided medical care.  I say it is time that we become more competitive as a nation and start utilizing these prisoners to perform work to support them making prisons self sufficient. Prisons need to provide training programs to teach things like agriculture, wood, metal, plumbing and electrical skills.  Food should be grown on the premises and inmate performs duties such as manufacturing good and services to pay their incarceration.

Those who have been found guilty of murder, kidnapping rape and violent offenses that are given life sentences and have been denied appeals should be put to the gallows! The death penalty and use of the death penalty is a tremendous deterrent!
