"1. What would have to happen (politically, legislatively, judicially, or by executive decree) for the MG registry to reopen?"
All the monied folks with $16,000 M16s and ammo to feed them would have to lose their political influence within the only organizations that would ever seek a repeal of the ban. Never happening.
"Looking at all the issues Congress has to deal with, ain't going to happen"
Well, opening the registry would not
cost any money; in fact it would raise money quite readily. Would probably be easier to get through Congress than passing a budget at this point
.
That's it! We need to destroy our tax base so much that there'll be no choice but to raise the needed bones through machinegun licensing!
Tom, how much for a paid ambassadorship to a nation that doesn't actually exist? (Ah, sweet Couchistan
)
