Reply #157: Waiting periods have been imposed

[pipoman]

show me one person who was saved by a waiting period in any of those jurisdictions.

OK, since you can't do that show me a case of a person going and buying a gun one day, then killing someone with it the next...

If you can't cite numerous examples of the latter you have no justification to infringe on constitutional rights..the burden to show that your infringement is justifiable is on you.

Further you have stated time and again so far in this thread that you 'think' this or that is reasonable, or it is 'imho'...what makes you think you should be the arbiter of reasonableness? It is reasonable to you because you CHOOSE not to exercise this right. If I said I thought it is reasonable for all emails to go through a .gov program which may take up to ...some arbitrary time..how about 15-30 days? naaa, you've already used that arbitrary time...how about 24 hours? I think it would be reasonable to hold up email for 24 hours and to run them through a reader program looking for words which may help us catch terrorists, or drug dealers, or mobsters, or who knows what? See what I've done there? I've decided that my sensibilities are prevailing and reasonable for you and your rights? how do you like that?
