Only a matter of time before the NRA and some dumbass NeoCons come out and say this bill is more nonsense from the Nanny state. Hell, there are some fools who oppose reducing the size of clips.
Well, I don't know about that.
But I will tell you one thing:
This bill is just more nonsense from the Nanny State.
And I don't care about clips, but I think we need bigger magazines.
My 2 cents....
So the mentally disturbed should be able to purchase a gun? I wouldn't say keeping the guns out the hands of sociopaths would be considered infringement of the 2nd Amendment.
The hurdle to prove that somebody is mentally ill is high for a reason. For example, in the past, inconvenient women could be declared insane and institutionalized, thus relieving disinterested husbands from the burden of their company.
It's also a hallmark of a totalitarian society to declare insane the Inconvenient People who care to criticize the policies of The Regime.
I'd rather err on the side of protecting people's individual liberty than to give the state the power to declare us mentally unfit on the merest pretext.
