New gun policy for parolees creates problems, not solutions USA / Etroit Free Press, 22 July 2004

LOCAL COMMENT: New gun policy for parolees creates problems, not solutions: "BARBARA R. LEVINE
Under a policy that Gov. Jennifer Granholm recently announced, a parolee who possesses a gun or associates with someone possessing a gun will be returned to prison for 5 years or the remainder of his or her maximum sentence, whichever is less. Returning to mandatory penalties is a huge step backwards."
