"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Petition regarding firearm licensing on the grounds that a number of times firearms have been issued to people of unstable minds who, when provoked just a little, pull out their firearms. Such action borders on violence. In some instances, one may commit an offence that will be referred to as “murder”. That notwithstanding, when will a firearm be deemed to have been used properly or in a way that one will not be said to have committed murder, especially when the holder has been exposed to danger? As I support the Petition, I urge the Members of the Committee to look at the law to ensure that when it is properly used, one is not charged with murder because murder is an optimum crime. Once one is charged with murder, even though he may get bail, he faces a lot of challenges even in terms of securing the right bond at the right time. People are locked up for a long time before bond issues are considered by the courts. I support the Petition."
