If you read this, after this is struck down i want you to remember this bill the next time you read about another mass shooting. I know youre numb to them but realize they arent normal for developed countries.
I don't expect this to go over well with the federal supreme court...
We've already established a line that some weapons are too dangerous for the general public. I wonder why states can't draw the line of what weapons it considers are too dangerous.
We have already established that some speech is too dangerous to be allowed in public. I wonder why states can't decide what we are allowed to say or not.
Oh wait, I don't. If you have an issue understanding opposition to a gun control law, try replacing gun with speech and see if you see the problem. Both are equally constitutionally protected rights.
But we have already established that some speech is too dangerous to be allowed? Yes, there is opposition to that notion, but it doesn't change the reality that some people can and will kick up enough bullshit to start a Holocaust.
