Well, I guess it's all solved and we have nothing to worry about then?

Sorry, but I remember that bill, it was yet another attempt at "getting tough on crime". I suppose it may have helped some crimes in some places, but really, by the time someone is "caught" and charged with federal crimes, it's too late. They've already done incalculable damage to the fabric of civilized society with all the crimes for which they've NOT been caught nor charged for.

The fact is crime goes up and down. Law enforcement and the courts can only do so much.
