don’t know who else saw the joint news conference from mexico late this pm, but; obama was put on the spot with a pointed question about his not re-instituting the assault weapons ban. his answer was that it was not legislatively possible , right now, to renew the ban. however, he said that there was an immediate opportunity to pass ballistic matching legislation in congress. i’m sure most of you remember this from past experience. bottom line? it legislates ammunition manufacturers out of business. so in very lawyerly fashion, we are not denied our rights to own guns as guaranteed, congress just puts “reasonable safety provisions” on ammo; ones that effectively cannot be met when combined with statutory fines for violations. i searched for a trnscript and so far have not been able to locate one. here we go again.
