The following appeared on the web site of Doctors for Sensible Gun Laws.
"You do not examine legislation in light of the benefits it will convey if properly administered, but in light of the wrongs it would do and the harms it would cause if improperly administered."
~~ Lyndon B. Johnson
Of course,one remembers that Mr. Johnson advocated passage of a "National Sullivan Law", which came to be The Omnibus Safe Streets Act and the Gun Control Act of 1968.
Unfortunately, neither Mr. Johnson nor a whole lot of others took to heart, the offered advice.
