93. how interesting

"I believe that the merits of each prohibition is the most important topic."

Then I'm left wondering why you toss scarlet fishies like "... Rebecca Peters was instrumental in getting hundreds of thousands of guns confiscated from previously lawful owners in Australia and the UK ..." (emphasis added) around.

That, after all, was the particular herring that I was addressing.

I would have to agree with you absolutely -- the appropriate topic for discussion is the merits of a policy, not whether it is different from a previously existing policy, which it will be by definition.

And I believe that was my point.


"However, if you are saying that we won't find agreement on this one, I believe you are correct and I am going to let it rest."

Fascinating. I mean, given that I haven't expressed any opinion, in our little discussion, about the merits of any policy ... and that I've been pretty much absent from any recent discussion hereabouts.

Perhaps I could borrow your crystal ball?



edit
... Oh dang. I'd wondered how long it would go on, and here I forgot to check before going on ...

Toodles!
