18. Not really, more like a Non-starter

This is the kind of useless "feel good" crap you get when you sit people down and tell them to "give us your "ideal" gun control laws, never mind that pesky constitution or the political realities on the ground".

Never mind that virtually none of these will ever see the floor of a legislature.

Good heavens, if you Gun Control fans got your way the Democrats in office would look like Castle Bansalot. Three dedicated, pure, hard core members and everyone else can go to hell.

In the meantime, still waiting for the blood bath in Georgia that was promised after the "Guns Everywhere" law passed.
