BUT, I would prefer a Constitutional amendment rather than the attitude "well, if this part of the Constitution is no good, let's ignore it." Once we've started that, I'd worry a lot about my favorite parts (you know, freedom of speech and that stuff). Of course, if gun control won't pass, you can be even more sure that an amendment wouldn't either... -- Don Porges ...harpo!inmet!porges ...hplabs!sri-unix!cca!ima!inmet!porges ...yale-comix!ima!inmet!porges
