(17,671 posts)If you don't want to think about it that's fine. If you don't want to try to figure out how to solve the problem I don't mind. The legislation is already in the pipe and we're all spectators at this point. But it's pretty rude to shut down the conversation by ordering people around, don't you think?
You know, I've had this conversation about a half dozen times already and the end is already the same. When the hard questions start people just shut down. I don't mind registration in principle, but I want the law to work without unduly invading the privacy of people who would do no harm. That's how good legislation gets made. And you can bet even if you don't want to discuss it, there are millions of people out there who are perfectly willing to force their legislators to do so. That's why the legislation you want is so hard to get.
