and the truly amazing part is that clinton signed it into law. not a republican, a democrat. unbelievable. perhaps he thought the courts would sort that out. that's when you know pols are chicken-when they sign something to get some folks off their back, and let the court straighten it out.
just like 150 years ago, you have northern democrats and southern democrats. the southern dems are the ones who want to protect guns (good idea) but are strictly bible belt (a bad idea).
i thought we were not a theocracy??

i still want someone to give me a logical explanation of how granting rights to all takes something away from the some who already enjoy those rights? how does granting a right change anyone else's way of life? impinge on them in any way? make life more difficult for them?
