Politicians Write Stupid Bill
That Will Get People Killed
By Bob Owens. January 27th, 2016
That, my friends, is what we call an "evergreen" headline.
In this instance, however, we're talking about a law written by slow-witted politicians who feel compelled to "do something" because criminals are still acting like criminals despite existing laws that tell them that crime will be punished.
In this instance, we're facing yet another dumb law on how fake guns must be colored so that they aren't as easily confused with real guns, as if the criminal behavior committed with both fake a real firearms isn't the problem.
The Massachusetts House is set to vote Wednesday on a bill that would require all imitation firearms owned, made or sold in Massachusetts be marked to distinguish them from real guns. ........ 
A classic "we must do something" approach to reduce gun crime. In the real world, well-trained police officers and "regular Joe" citizens are going to react to threats being made by a person, not the color of the gun in their hand. Criminals of course, willing to commit assault with a deadly weapon in the commission of a crime, are probably more than willing to paint their weapon a new color.
