I reread the article twice but I didn't see where skinner contended that her bill to tighten ammo purchases would 'stop a tragedy'. Could you copy & paste an excerpt of her saying that? thanks.
If you put words in someone's mouth, then use that as a predicate to develop pejorative opinions about the person, it's called slander. If you make a false implication as you did above, I'd call it cheating.
.. as far as enforcing her bill, twould likely be a passive check which would need little 'enforcement' outside of refusing the sale if a proper ID wasn't produced; perhaps state ID, state drivers license, foid card. Or refusal if person appears intoxicated or otherwise distraught. See?
.. personally I could support a wait period for boxes larger than 100 of ammo caliber larger than 22, plus fmj. If stockpiling is the object, shouldn't be a problem. But it'd be too complex I know. Hey! 500 bullets per day law! or, um, 180,000 rounds per year limit!!! uh oh, I hear wayno already, INFRINGEMENT.
.. I owned 2 long guns in 30 years & I still had the very same box I first bought of 250 22s, more than half filled, when I got rid of em - the sg maybe I went thru 100 shells, fleeting interest in skeet. Used to fire them into soft ground once a year to see if they still worked, is all. Can think of hundreds of times I'm glad I didn't have a gun, not once I wished I'd had one.
