""The absurdity of banning squirt guns but not being able to do anything about real guns is patently obvious," Buckhorn said Thursday. "Given the nature and the potential dynamic of this event, I think it would make sense that you would not want firearms introduced into that environment by people other than law enforcement."
...The real absurdity here, is someone going into public, and with a straight-face, actually suggesting "banning" any bloody thing.Who is he to "ban" anything? And what, on earth, gives the guy the idea that "banning" a weapon he would never see, unless brought out and used, would even be enforcible -short of x-rays and metal-detectors and pat-downs of everyone coming around?
Amazing the level of idiocy, sometimes, that gets voted into such positions..
