It's reacting to the Supreme Court's ruling. How can you be ignoring something when your actions are in direct response to that thing?

I understand how you could try to make thier case for them but I doubt that anyone who has fought this action has any doubt about what they are trying to do. Do you really believe that any bottom loading magazine is a "machine gun" is a valid statement? Do you think that the intent of the DC council was to do anything other than to continue an outright ban and prevent people from having the means to protect themselves? please...
And people like to bitch and moan about how they have had rights taken away by the Bush admin. Talk about cherry picking.
