Well, would you look at that.
Something the woke crowd is doing that I actually happen to agree with. Of course, it's not for the same reasons. Frankly, it's stupid to enhance penalties because of the tool used in a particular crime. If the sentence and the length/severity thereof doesn't deter crime regardless of the tools used in commission of the crime, then that needs to be addressed in its own right.
Does the victim or their family care if they or their loved one were killed by being shot vs. bludgeoned with a hammer? Is some greater justice served because the perp. chose to use one tool vs. another? Frankly, there's typically more passion involved in a killer that chooses a knife over a gun... which is far less personal. Are we rewarding people that are more passionate about who they're killing?
California May Soften Gun Crime Laws, Citing Impact On People Of Color
A California state assembly committee gave its stamp of approval on April 27 to legislation that would significantly soften sentences for people convicted

I'm confused by their statements that firearms enhanced sentencing is racist and disproportionately affecting minorities. Perhaps a disproportionate number of gun infractions are committed by minorities. Using a gun to commit any crime should be discouraged and I can't think of anything else that might work. What about catching a felon in possession of a firearm? Since they aren't penalizing for the use of a gun while committing a crime what about after they get out for holding up a liquor store and beating some poor sales clerk almost to death? If liberal la-la land wasn't so ignorant it would be good for a laugh. Instead it is scary that they are so clueless. Bob

As there is nothing in the law that enhances the severity of the crime if committed by people of color, there are two solutions.
- Reduce the severity of the charges available for gun crimes when committed by people color.
- Request that people of color commit gun crimes at a rate proportionate to their population.

How does enhancing the crime because of the weapon used matter?
I would rather be shot square in the forehead with a pistol than be hacked to death with a machete..........the victim is dead either way. So, let's enhance the charges if it's MS-13 with a machete or a chainsaw...........they don't use guns.
