6. "Common sense" seems to be the first thing left out of

Common Sense Laws. I guess common sense dictates not enforcing a common sense law, but also, common sense dictates that a law abiding citizen that's never gotten in any trouble will turn in their guns because, well they're law abiding, so let go after them because it's easy. It's just too hard to deal with non law abiding citizens, so they get the RKBA until they do something so extreme that gets them caught.

This guy had to have been pulled over, or renewed his DL at some point after his rights were revoked and ordered to turn in his guns. He's working, paying taxes, has an address. How hard is it really to find him? Seems like a little common sense would have gotten him caught. Not that he wouldn't get a gun off the street... , but hell they didn't even try.

I can't even get into the second part of your post, the policing and prison part, because my brain can't fathom the stupidity of the system. It's like: Do all the wrong things and waste as much money as possible doing it.
