The program would push for anyone found to be illegally in possession of a firearm to be sentenced to a minimum of five years in federal prison.
Imposing the Second Amendment on the states would require a constitutional amendment, the Incorporation Doctrine being false and the pre-Civil War Bill of Rights restricting only the general government.
The national concealed carry bill apparently seeks to do that by statute, which is also unconstitutional.
But it is no surprise the NRA and the Republican Party support it.
But it is a surprise that either would accept imposition of mandatory prison time for mere unlawful possession of a firearm.
