Firearms are present in my home, when do I get a visit from the tac team? Was there a crime here, or response on the possibility of firearms being present?

We need stiffer and "real" penalties for these type of infractions. We tie our Police Departments hands with paperwork that they're probably STILL doing, and the culprits are most likely getting ready to sit down and have dinner at home. What will it take to fix it, I don't know. But I do see that in countries where the penalties are severe, people don't risk the chance of being caught and just don't do some of the outright stupid things we see in this part of the world.
