i don't know if it was loaded, and your right its not against the law,but you have to show some common sense .
You're right. it just comes down to common sense.
Because right/wrong doesn't matter here. Public opinion does. Once Joe Public is convinced public town centres are now unsafe, packed with gun nuts, he'll support gun control legislation that *only* covers town centres.
And when the bill goes to a 60% Dem Senate, they'll surely add a bunch of high-cap, anti-rifle legislation to it.
And when brady Bill II passes, the right-wing nuts who have been screaming "obama wants our guns" will have nobody but themselves to thank but themselves, for acually being a part of making this a reality.
