"I want to an opportunity to raise important issues about gun violence and gun safety in America," he said. "I'm going to offer an amendment ... which stiffens the penalties for those who purchase guns to give them to another person or sell them to another person to commit a crime."
"Girlfriends, wake up," Durbin said. "When that thug sends you in to buy a gun, under this amendment, you run the risk of spending 15 years of your life in a federal prison. So think about it. Is he really worth it?" US Senator Dick Durbin This Morning

And our latest gangbanger (with nothing wrong with him according to the Reverend)arrested this morning is a felon who pointed a gun at an officer and in turn was shot in the azz.
A quick look at the 23 year-old's past record shows a '08 arrest and '09 conviction for delivery of over 500 grams or over a pound of marijuana. While on bond in 09 he was arrested and convicted of unlawful aggravated use of a weapon from a vehicle. He was sentenced to 2 years for the marijuana and 2 years for the weapons' charge and entered IDOC on 10/16/09. Less than 2 years later in 2011 specifically 10/5/11 he was found guilty of residential burglary and was sentenced to 4 years. Somehow on 8/22/13 less than 2 years later he was paroled and less than a year after that was pointing a gun with a scratched off serial number at a police officer. He now faces charges including two counts of aggravated assault of a peace officer with a firearm, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon on parole, possessing a firearm with a defaced serial number and being an armed habitual criminal.

And Jesse maintains there ain't nothing wrong with him and Durbin wants to enact laws that would put his girlfriend behind bars for 15 years for buying the gun.
