The banning of future ownership of firearm is the slap on the wrist, not the jail sentence.

They’ve proven they can get guns illegally so what use is telling them they can’t do it legally?

I never said the jail time was a slap on the wrist.

You’re soo primed to argue you’re missing the idea and jumping to refute points I never made.

The reason you're being downvoted is because you're ignoring the real world punishments for ones that don't exist. My bringing those consequences up is not to "refute points" you made but to steer the subject to that real world.

So it's not me missing the idea or jumping to refute imaginary points, it's that you started with a ridiculous premise and were deservedly called out for it.
