Low-information politicians mean to do well, bless their hearts.
Low-information legislators in Atlantic City, New Jersey have taken the hard-line approach to the terrible problem of misuse of toy guns by kids. Their proposed solution, passed 9-0 on September 18th and now awaiting the mayor’s signature?
Possess a toy gun, go to jail for up to 30 days and pay a $50 fine.
Atlantic City, NJ (NBC Philadelphia) – City Council members approved a plan Wednesday night that will make it illegal to sell or own realistic-looking fake guns in Atlantic City.
In a 9-0 vote, council members approved an ordinance that will ban the sale, possession or use of any imitation firearm that isn’t bright, transparent or in fluorescent colors, according to the Atlantic City Press. The ordinance will also ban the sale of toy pistols with metal caps to minors.
Next thing you know, they’ll be banning possession of real guns that are bright, transparent or in fluorescent colors!
So how do these morons define “realistic-looking fake guns”?
Don’t all toy guns come with the orange, fluorescent tip by federal mandate?
This commie BS hurts my head.
