I hope that this is the beginning of a process of

popular revolt against government abridgement

of personal -- and constitutional -- freedoms.

    So...why don't all those people go to the polls and vote the gun registration to the legislative hell to which it belongs?

        Sigh. This is always the case. Perhaps the root of the problem is that people who are rational are not as excitable as liberals. So the first people who rush to the polls are the liberals, then the conservatives mosey along, then...maybe...some objectivists decide to be counted.

        So, new idea: We need to figure out what will cause a flash panic in the Libertarian and Objectivist crowd.

          the defenders of liberty have a tendency to be slow to react,

          in my experience ... my best estimate is having a requirement

          that all laws expire in 10 years unless ratified. . that would

          keep us on point. . amending the constitution would

          not require 10 year ratification, so we might consider

          that more often. -- j

            Yes. I think that all laws should have an "Expiration Date". This is one of the things that the Founding Fathers could not have thought of: they lived in a world that did not change as readily as ours does. The result of a lack of expiration of laws is that we are saddled with a lot of outdated or whimsical regulations that accrete like sediment on the rails of innovation.
