digging into H.R.1342 we find:

months after this Act's enactment) the manufacture or import of an unsafe handgun, with exceptions.

Defines "unsafe handgun" to mean: (1) any handgun that fails a specified drop test; (2) any handgun without a child resistant trigger mechanism designed to prevent a child under age five
from operating it; (3) any semiautomatic pistol that does not have a magazine disconnect safety; and (4) any handgun that is sold without a mechanism designed to prevent a handgun's
discharge by an authorized user.

i repeat:

(4) any handgun that is sold without a mechanism designed to prevent a handgun's
discharge by an authorized user.

how is that different than:
(2) any handgun without a child resistant trigger mechanism designed to prevent a child under age five
from operating it;

Sometime in the last 15 or 20 years, I read an article in Guns & Ammo written by a fellow who had spent quite a bit of time researching crime trends and their possible causes. He discovered that since 1900 (as far back as reliable records would allow research), the ONLY thing that matched high spikes in crime rates was.....increases in the JUVENILE POPULATION!!!! As the juvies aged past adolesence, crime rates dropped, and stayed relatively low until the next generation began to creep into adolesence.
I find this highly ironic in light of the fact that the current battle-cry of the bannits is "for the children". Hellfire, it's those little f***ers that are COMMITTING a large percentage of the violent crimes. The "smart" criminals are the older ones who go in more for property crimes such as embezlement, insurance fraud, large-scale drug dealing, etc, where the REAL money is. Unfortunately, crime DOES pay. Why else is the world's leading business the illicit drug trade? ($700 BILLION+ anually, as opposed to the #2 business, telecomunications, at $500 billion+.)

Coinneach,
I can help explain the prevention of truancy. They will put the parents in jail! Honest!

My daughter Teresa was sick, had to go to the doctor. When she returned to school a note from the parents was NOT enough for an excused absence! It had to be a note from the doctor - and not anyone else at the doctor's office!

This amazed me because if I had brought her home (instead of taking her to the doctor) my note would have sufficed.

The school system called it an unexcused absence nearly equal to the number of days which would permit them to put BOTH my wife and me in jail. This would have left both my daughters without parents and the great state of Texas would have had Child Protective Services take our kids from us.

And they want parental involvement! They damned near got more involvement than they could handle! (Can you spell GARAND?)

Gotta quit. I'm smashing the keyboard!

(e) AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS- There is authorized to be
appropriated to carry out this section, $25,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2000, 2001,
and 2002.

doods!, here is our answer
maybe we could set up gun clubs to thwart truancy! we could get 100k per year!

go to http://thomas.loc.gov
search for S.639

read what we are paying for
 
Idea:

We set up a public school which includes

--*mandatory* firearms safety and marksmanship courses(*);

--*mandatory* non-revisionist world and US history courses;

--*mandatory* Constitutional Law courses.

(*) I don't think attendance would be an issue with this one. "OK, kids, today we're going to learn muzzle control with select-fire Uzis. Tomorrow's lesson will be on identifying blue helmets at 500 yards."
