I read an article that noted none of the first 100 people prosecuted under this law were jailed.
Are there any statistics about how many people have been prosecuted, and how many were actually jailed?
I've had many conversations lately along the lines of "Lawful gun owners, like everyone else, want an end to gun violence. But the many laws Massachusetts already has have failed - because they are not enforced. Lets enforce the laws already on the books before passing new ones."
