The mindless inanity of the NY CT and CA 'assault weapon' bans.

No response. Huh.

from who to whom?

From those that support such bans to those of us who seek their sound argument for doing so.

So you are looking for a square circle?

OK, got it.

Well now, lets just ban semi-automatics, period. Rifle or handgun. Because the mindless knee jerk reaction of you people is going to result in exactly that. The resentment of the gun lobby and the insistence that ever more guns out here is going to prevent these weekly random shootings has about reached critical mass. The NRA and those of you with these guns either come up with some rational approaches to the problem, or those that don't like the guns, period, will. And that will be the Australian approach. And we know that has worked.

"Semiautomatic" has become the new word for "boogeyman"

A revolver is a semiautomatic handgun
