where I live they have enhanced prison terms
carry a gun with a felony 5 years
fire a gun doing a felony 10 year
kill somebody with the gun - life
we also have a stand your ground law - you can kill somebody if necessary to defend yourself or another person
people have tried to misuse it and gone to trial anyway
so extra time in jail hasn't deterred anybody - just gets them on the street longer.
