A very good friend of mine sent a post supporting the governments initiative re mandatory minimum sentencing. There are many good arguments in favour when you look at the stats. My question is why are those groups over incarcerated? Maybe it is because of preferential treatment. More preferential treatment is the cure?

...
Trudeau’s Minister of Public Safety, Bill Blair, knows handgun bans don’t work.
In a 2019 interview with the Globe and Mail, he said months of consultations had led him to the conclusion banning handguns would be costly and ineffective.
...
Ironically, Blair, who served as Toronto police chief from 2005 to 2015 before entering politics, knows what would reduce gun crime.
But he can’t talk about it because the Trudeau government would call it racist and doesn’t appear interested in actually reducing gun violence...."

Originally posted by LEP View PostSo when gun crime continues virtually unabated in the future, who will the liberal blame then?
legal firearms owners who obey the law will get blamed... without question... as they are most likely never to vote for Liberals.
The Liberals know all their proposed firearms legislation is illegal... it is for show to get votes. As is the Assisted Suicide of handicapped and those with mental illness and depression. teens and then under 12 are the next in line...

Rationales advanced in support of mandatory minimum sentencing include their effect as a general deterrent, and their role in making the justice system more transparent, certain and fair. However, the research shows that punitive sentencing does not lead to safer communities. Instead of deterring potential offenders, mandatory minimums result in excessive, harsh penalties that increase the likelihood of recidivism.
Mandatory minimum sentencing shifts discretion from judges, whose decisions are public and reviewable, to prosecutors, whose decision-making is largely beyond review. While facially neutral, mandatory minimum sentences affect individuals from certain communities disproportionately. Mandatory minimum sentences have a particularly detrimental effect on Aboriginal offenders and communities.
The monetary costs associated with punitive reforms to the criminal justice system, including the rise of mandatory minimum sentencing, are staggering. However, the true cost of these measures goes well beyond expenditures on their implementation. There is a human and social cost to mandatory minimum sentencing that affects the long-term economic viability and wellbeing of Canadian communities. It is important to appreciate the downstream collateral consequences of punitive sentencing regimes as part of our collective responsibility for a just society.
