Here's the bottom line, there's little that anyone can do to keep felons from obtaining guns...period. Just as IP said previously. How does someone get labeled a felon? THEY BREAK THE LAW AND GET CAUGHT! They (felons) don't care about laws or the consequences of breaking them in most cases. Why? Because the punishments are weak. Going to jail for them is like winning an all expenses paid vacation. They go in, sit on their asses, join gangs, eat, sleep, etc. Being incarcerated should not be so easy. But I digress, that's outside of jsquat's topic. Setting up new regs. and laws do absolutely nothing as the individuals those things effect are already abiding by the laws already in place. Again, if laws mean nothing to the person nothing will change.
