I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

If the enforcement agency gets to make their own rules as they go - where is the oversight and accountability?

The gun nuts may not be so nutty after all.

Not to fuel the fire, but I think I mentioned before that the ATF once ruled that a shoestring is a machinegun.  They later changed their minds.

Yes, you mentioned it, but you failed to provide a link.

Not exactly a "shoestring is a machinegun", numbnuts.  Now go accidentally shoot your television.

Is truth ever anywhere close to what the gun nuts believe?

Quote from: from the letterBecause this item was designed and intended to convert a semiautomatic rifle into a machinegun, FTB determined that it was a machinegun...

Isn't 'this item' a reference to the '14-inch long shoestring with a loop at each end'?
