You do the crime, you do the time. If this guy was carrying a gun while doing drug deals, it was (is) only a matter of time until he shot someone.

This was not just about doing drug deals. It is being armed while doing drug deals where people are impaired and violence is extremely likely.

I have no qualms about getting this guy of the street until he is 80 or 180.

I feel the 55 yrs is fair. It's not the guns that bother me, it's the lives he ruined, for life, by dealing drugs. Without guys like him we wouldn't have a drug problem in this world. I believe the judge was wrong about hoping the president would commute the sentence. My hope is just the opposite.
