Re: When does the high-capacity magazine ban end???





#
#In any case, the AW ban ends on 9/14/2004 by default.  Last I heard any
#bill to extend it would get bogged down in committee in the House.  Some
#wacko Senators might whine and moan, but that's about all they can do.

Mark:  I wish what you said was true, but there will probably be some
":masacre" or other reason for the antis to use for their advantage, Look at
whgat happened after the Stockton, CA mess...we get the ban passed...  Or, if
NOTHING happens (which I truly wish), the antis will tack on a ammendment on
some piece of "must have" legislation, say making Domestic Violence a Federal
rap...that NO ONE would want to be seen as being against....  Either way I say
we are looking at a 80/20 probabilty of it getting made permenent. 

Either  way NOW is the time to write both your Senate and Congressional reps
and make your desires KNOWN... This is a totally assinine, "feel good", "first
step" and highly useless law that has, to the best of my knowledge, never been
"enforced" by a prosecution.
