[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by bdgee: [qb] Originally posted by bdgee: "Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994", was not and is not a "gun ban". "it was presented as such by the Clintons. and much celebration took place." is false. Neither of the Clintons characterized that act as banning guns and neither proposed to ban guns, then or now. That act seriously restricts specific fully automatic weapons that have exterior magazines and those that have inboard magazines that hold more than 5 rounds, but even then it is not a strict ban on even those guns. It was NOT a bill pushed through Congress by or sponsored by either of the Clintons. It is an absurdly impractical and superfluous bill. Maybe the Clintons knew exactly what they were doing in claiming it was effective, as it has quieted the clamor of the anti-gun extreme, who seem, foolishly, to think it accomplishes something toward their dream. To my knowledge, no one in any federal position that might actually be effective or have influence on the question, has ever proposed a "gun ban". Should some day some such official actually have the foolish gall to so propose, I am certain he would be laughed at, unless there is in the meantime an amendment to the Constitution changing the 2nd Amendment (which is about as likely as casual vacation trips to the dark side of the moon in our lifetime. [/qb][/QUOTE]budge, i have to say that you have no comprehension of what that bill did. is specifically by name [b]BANNED[/b]the manufacture of more than a dozen guns. it also[b] banned[/b] the POSSESION of detachable magazines manufactured after the ban was put in place. it[b] banned[/b] the manuf. of guns with the following attributes: * A folding or telescoping stock * A pistol grip * A flash suppressor * A grenade launcher * A bayonet lug none of these things matter one way or another when considering the realities of the danger of firearms. as i said? it was stupid. the Clintons hand walked the chit thru congress and took credit for it. Bill Clinton didn't even wait for the ink to dry before he signed it. you should be glad you are not a history buff. you always seem to want to latch onto simple semantic differences instead of acknowledging that not everybody communicates with the precision of a mathematician. most don't want to even if we CAN because it gets boring and tedious. lastly. the Clintons did do alot of stuff that you attribute to GOP slander. slander is only slander if it's a lie. look it up.
