Reply #82: It is a very, very technical subject,

[pipoman]

technicalities must be considered especially if you favor these types of ban legislation. Why was the 1994 assault weapons ban completely sterile? Because the people who wrote it and supported it were essentially clueless about the subject or were just trying to produce legislation to make people who were clueless about the subject feel safe/good. The result? Legislation which did absolutely not one single thing in terms of societal safety but cost Dems election after election for nothing.

Technicalities are extremely important.
