Do we have laws to keep people from being criminals or do we have laws to punish criminals?  The answer may seem obvious, but it isn’t.  If laws keep people from being criminals then why do we have criminals?  Could more laws reduce the number of criminals we have?  Of course they won’t.   Criminals will never abide by the law, which is why we call them criminals.  Seems pretty simple, no explanation needed.  So, explain to me why politicians continue to add laws that they know will do absolutely nothing?   The answer to that question is simple; they want to limit the rights of law abiding citizens.  Do you think criminals will not carry if the state they reside in restricts that Right?  Of course not.  They will continue to carry while law abiding citizens are turned into helpless victims.  I can go on and on about this but I really think we get the idea.  Criminals do not follow laws.  Criminals break laws, which is why they are CRIMINALS.
