Wow, and I thought the pinnacle of stupid was this from a state rep from CO on magazine bans -

“Yet last week at a public forum hosted by The Denver Post’s editorial board, DeGette made one of the largest gaffes of her career on the very issue she purports to be so passionate about, and the comments came at one of the most politically inopportune times for her party.

Asked why banning ammunition magazines that hold more than 15 rounds would be effective in reducing gun violence, DeGette responded:

“These are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now, they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”

In just about every case the crash test dummies are smarter

I know this sounds stupid but it is more the presentation than the actual need.

It should be industry not the .gov to figure this out. A few hundred million dollar settlements should help them figure this out.

Putting all large size re male crash test dummies has caused a lot of women and children to be hurt.

A five foot 90 woman could get her neck severely injured in a crash with a badly designed seat belt.

It is even worse for children.

Regarding the crash test dummies:
It seems that roughly 25 years ago NHTSA put together a "family" of crash test dummies to "increase crash protection for all occupants, including infants, children, and adults who ride in vehicles."

Article preview: https://www.sciencedirect.com/...ii/S0196064499800158

Female crash test dummies are also mentioned in this article from NHTSA.

Ms. Norton needs a clue.




Politicians seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around.

The issue approached in this manner would receive my attention and participation. Approached in the manner of this ridiculous political moron, and you get nothing short of my aggressive disdain.

What's next? Ethnically correct crash test dummies to reinforce stereotypes?

No need for huge .gov bids & contracts, realistic female thump&bump dummies are already available at any Adam&Eve franchise.

Easy answer. Make it a law that car makers be required to supply gender specific / size specific seatbelts. .................................................. drill sgt.

You don't have to know anything to be a member of congress.

Look at Sheila Jackson Lee. AND she does get a vote.
