Minimum sentence 3 1/2 years if found guilty at trial. I'm just not sure how he could have possibly NOT have been found guilty. But I do agree 2 yrs for illegally carrying a handgun is absurd. But it's better than 3.5. He'll be out in 20 months with good behavior.

hopefully roger goodells lets plaxicos nfl suspension run concurrent with his jail sentence...even then, he'll still miss more ball time than stallworth. makes zero sense.

Most Brothas, Turks, Serbs, Russians, and other hot-head types can't handle the responsibility that comes with carrying a gun. They get in an argument, and that's it. They can't control themselves(tempers are totally unmanageable.) Brothas kill people in clubs. Turks kill people who dare enforce anti-smoking laws in restaurants.

Agree. Only white people should be allowed to carry guns. Nobody else is responsible enough to know how to use them.

Anyone allowed to carry a gun should have to pass a mandatory vision test.

Okay, how about short white people? Should GPK be allowed to carry a gun?

Shoot yourself in the thigh = 2 years
Kill dogs = 18 months
Kill a human while driving drunk and high = 30 days

I'm thinking things look backwards here. That being said, how hard is it if you are Plaxico fricken Burress to register your gun? Had he just registered it he wouldn't have spent a day in jail.

BTW, no Liquid Refreshment folks. Higher Hurdle..Safer world. Don't think it's that much to ask (if one wants to carry a gun) that someone be able to see well, moderate their temper, and avoid abusing substances.

I used to own a handgun, but gave it to my father when I moved out of state years ago. Needless to say I will be buying another one in about 12-13 years. Either that or lock my daughter in her room til shes 21

I said "most." Point is that there are people who's tempers are out of control. We shouldn't have to hope somebody doesn't say the wrong thing to them at the wrong time. Should be a high hurdle (in order to be allowed to have a gun on you.) If there are any anger management problems at all, then you shouldn't be carrying. Let them carry something less lethal.

So saying "most" makes your racist views better? You sound like the United States government when they say that most countries shouldn't be allowed to have nuclear weapons because they wouldn't be responsible enough to know not to use them. There are a lot of people with temper problems. They come in all races and nationalities. Not just "Brothas, Turks, Serbs, and Russians." And definitely not "most" of even those nationalities.

Smashed on alcohol and marijuana. Damn good point.

While the sentence may seem harsh to many of you one point needs to be brought up - he was in an establishment where alcohol was served with a loaded firearm. When you mix alcohol with a loaded firearm, need I say anything else?

Here is a classic example of how those two don't mix and how in an extreme case things can go very wrong. I met a young man last week who is facing 42 years in prison, his trial begins shortly. Here is how this came about. He gets off work one day and gets a call from a cousin of his and says that some men caused her harm. He jumps in his pickup truck, buys a 12 pack and drives 2 hours to where she is to "make it right". When he gets to this home, several men charge at him with baseball bats and start beating him before he can get out of his truck. He remembers that he has a loaded gun underneath his seat, pulls it out and starts firing. Two innocent bystanders, middle aged women, are shot, not fatally. They are going to recover physically.

You carry a loaded gun into an establishment that sells open containers of alcohol, you deserve hard time.

In the case of Stallworth, I find it crazy that if the deceased was crossing the street at a designated crosswalk, his sentence would've been much harsher. The world we live in, I'll tell ya. Bottom line, he was high and drunk and killed someone with his vehicle. Yet he's shown leniency due to where the guy who got clipped was crossing the ro-ad.

Open, shut-closed, AIR tight. Open, shut-closed, AIR tight. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighhht?

You buy a 12-pack for a 2 hour drive for a fight you are looking for?-you deserve life in stupid-town.
