A note about the Air America debate:
My friend [1]Glen Whitman (Agoraphilia) writes this, apropos the
debate:
I was amused by the following juxtaposition:
(1) Within 5 minutes of the debate's opening, they were openly
discussing the need to expand the assault weapons ban to include
some handguns, and you had to argue against full-on gun
prohibition.
(2) Toward the end of the debate, Scher called gun owners
"paranoid" for thinking that minor gun restrictions would lead to
full-on gun prohibition.
Exactly. In fact, I think it was the host (it was hard to tell the
voices apart) who asked me what would be wrong with a ban on handguns
generally, not just some handguns.
