Reply #14: I will endorse a law that actually has a chance of doing more harm than good- [View All]

One that's:

a) constitutional - no 'takings' without compensation, no ex post facto, meets due process burdens
b) has a chance of affecting 'prohibited persons' instead of regular people
c) has a way to measure success and an automatic repeal if that criteria isn't met

The 'rifle' portion of the '94 AWB was a joke- not because it was badly written, but because it targeted weapons that were rarely used in crime to begin with (and still are, despite more people owning them now than during the "ban").

One thing I can get behind right now is states' compliance with entry into NICS. The money has been set aside, but not allocated to the states. It makes sure that those who have been disqualified get into the system.
