He does not seem to understand the concept of flexibility in the law or to understand that the law is intended to protect persons and property. To me, this isn't even a gun control issue. Its more of a registration law issue. You are also required to register your motor vehicle, but the disparity between the penalties is unthinkable. (A fine vs. jail time) Are prosecutors elected in Brooklyn? This guy Hynes sounds like he needs a new job.....maybe in the recycling business. xponent Ever Increasing List Of Idiocy Maru rob smart patrol nowhere to go suburban robots that monitor reality common stock we work around the clock we shove the poles in the holes _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
