New Laws to stop Gun Crime....

The government has strengthen laws on gun crime in different kind of ways. For example:...
1. They are increasing the age limit for possessing an air rifles is 17 years and above.
2. Prohibited certain air weapons that are easily converted to fire live ammunition.
3. Any person that is caught with an illegal firearm in their possession, will be sentenced to prison for a minimum of 5 years.

I agree that these laws would work to a certain extent, but i do not believe that these laws are not that harsh enough for example i think that the 1st law stated above should be raised to the age of 18 years old. Or i believe to possess an air rifle a person should be certified by the government or the police.

Gun crime is on the LOW LOW LOW....:D
