Some of his other things are sensible. I object in principle to a magazine limit, but I suppose I could go along with, say, a 15 or 20 round limit. It won't change anything, but you seem to think it will, so I'll give you a decade to realize it and repent.

I mean, the 10-round ban from the previous AWB should have proven that to you, but I guess some articles of faith die hard.

Sensible things are also off the table, like legalizing pot, or universal single payer physical and mental health insurance.

Because we're settling for making your death spewers less available and attractive ellisonz Jan 2013 #11

And resulting in more of them being sold? krispos42 Jan 2013 #12

Wouldn't be sold if your people hadn't allowed the ban to expire... ellisonz Jan 2013 #13
