Remember that Wash DC politicians continued the ban by redefining most handguns as machine guns. Voila! No ban on handguns, just machine guns—in practical terms, nothing changed.

Wash DC’s dishonesty, designed to squash the freedoms of Americans, should linger like a bad taste in the Supreme Court’s members’ mouths while they are contemplating the words to put in their decision in the Chicago case.

Remember that Wash DC politicians continued the ban by redefining most handguns as machine guns. Voila! No ban on handguns, just machine guns—in practical terms, nothing changed.

I think what they actually did was apply the "California Roster of Handguns Determined Not to be Unsafe" as the regulation for allowable handguns. Not to nitpick (and not to imply, in any way, that that is OK), but to ensure that our arguments are airtight.
