We're serious about stopping organized retail theft. California has distributed $267 million to law enforcement agencies to crack down on crime, arrest perpetrators, prosecute more cases, and hire more police officers.

Then why have gun crimes in CA exploded since we eliminated the sentencing enhancement? Long prison sentences do work because they keep the worst criminals off the streets, preventing them from reoffending. It’s not really that complicated.

Or maybe they want fewer guns so people don’t murder children in the first place. Long criminal penalties are not really a deterrent to someone who plans and executes a mass shooting. Your bill is what is theater.
