It's Not About New Gun Laws; It's about Enforcing the Ones We Have Read more: https://www.ammoland.com/2019/02/no-new-laws-enforcing-ones-we-have/#ixzz5yK5aZIK5 Under Creative Commons License: Attribution Follow us: @Ammoland on Twitter | Ammoland on Facebook We already have the laws we need to stop the criminal misuse of guns. Drafting new laws, especially since nearly all proposals affect only the law-abiding, distracts us from the real solutions that are at hand. Getting these priorities backwards can and does cost lives. We need political leaders who will assume responsibility for ensuring law enforcement agencies have the resources and authority to carry out their responsibilities. Those agencies must ensure they are doing what the law was intended to do. Implementation is the Hard Part That process, accomplished out of the public spotlight, is a whole lot harder than holding press conferences and passing new laws. Successful implementation of laws and continuing oversight does not make news. Lax, inadequate, misfocused or neglected enforcement does make news in the form of tragic incidents. https://www.ammoland.com/2019/02/no-new-laws-enforcing-ones-we-have/#axzz5yK213gwK
