They were unreasonably unhelpless, even two were known wounded by gunshot and one has yet to be accounted for. Damn, that man really didn't like them, did he? He wants a law that compromises them further. What a dolt! Did state representative John Myers think his son, his son’s mother, and his son’s sister were not helpless enough?

The operative issue is not whether limiting people to 13 handguns per year is a "reasonable step", but whether the enactment of such law violates the "shall not be infringed" clause of the 2A. It seems to me that limiting the number of firearms a citizen can lawfully purchase in one year is an infringement (reasonable or otherwise) on the "right to keep and bear arms". Besides, what am I supposed to do with all that extra money? This is pitiful.

Quite a lot of people at Cabelas in Pennsylvania are from New Jersey and the Philadelphia area. You can tell by the number of people there with two stickers on their windshield. The people in rural PA counties don't have to get emissions inspections, so they only have one sticker. It's not a good representative sample of the gun community. I went to the Committee of the Whole thing yesterday. My account of it is <a href="http://kmilligan.livejournal.com/147373.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. It includes some pictures. Based on the votes at yesterday's session, they aren't getting their one gun a month law. Even some of the less extreme measures were going down to defeat. I agree with Yosemite Sam here.

Of course they would think a handgun limit was reasonable. A more reasonable alternative would be to cede Philadelphia to New Jersey. Then they could have the gun laws they want.

I'm useless in the fight anymore, I read stuff like this and I see red. It's too close to my heart. Cabela’s had better whip together a press release against this.
