In reply to the discussion: Gun Owners: We WILL have to BAN some guns [View all]Tx4obama
(36,974 posts)15. One person in prison for five years costs the American taxpayers $250,000
Your plan would result in more profits for the private prison system, no loss of income of the gun industry, and tear apart fathers and mothers from their children.
We have enough people in prison as it is now.
The assault weapons, drums, and the magazines that have more than five or ten bullet capacity should be totally banned and confiscated.
Just my two cents
