If we examine gun crimes and shootings we note there are two main areas of concern. Many are committed by the mentally ill or violent criminals. House Bill 297 addresses violent criminals. HB 297 increases penalties on criminals who commit violent gun crimes. If you steal a gun or use a gun in a crime 3 years will be added to your sentence (of the original crime). As an example if you commit an armed robbery with a firearm upon conviction your sentence will be 9 years for armed robbery plus 3 more years for firearm enhancement. I want to thank member of the House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee for passing this legislation on a 3 to 2 vote.
