Gun offenders?

Malum,
I guess that in our politically correct nation you can't even offend your guns now.
So instead of a "kaboom" we should call it "an overly expansive ejection". This language we speak is beginning to have way to many words so I think I will just keep my mouth shut, Not.
Take care
TJ

"Obviously," said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, "Judge Costello arrived at a moment of true clarity. She discovered what gun rights advocates have long understood: Feel-good gun control schemes do nothing to reduce crime."
. . .
"If you want to reduce gun crime in New Jersey," Gottlieb concluded, "hit criminals with 'Three Strikes' and 'Hard Time for Armed Crime' laws, which were championed by gun owners. Pass shall-issue legislation, and a solid stand-your-ground law. Put criminals on notice that if the system doesn't get them, one of their intended victims might. Criminals will have two options: Change their ways, or wish they had."
