The speedy trial bit is so that somebody can’t be arrested charged and then sit in jail for years with no trial scheduled. The part about not screaming fire in a movie threatre is about not inciting panic in a crowd where somebody could be hurt as a result. Both are logical changes and neither should be used to try and draw a parallel to whether or not this stupid proposed ban should be enacted. While I still believe that this specific law proposition is silly… An attempt to remove certain guns from the population has a lot more merit and history of damage than outlawing something as yelling fire in a crowded theater, which is already enabled and is infringing on the constitution under a blanket of a “common good and safety” Bringing tear gas with 3 guns to a theater springs to mind. If they outlawed one due to a few precedent cases of people being killed, are you really surprised they are attempting to outlaw this. That’s pretty much as parallel as you can get. Two acts committed in crowded theaters causing deaths resulting in attempted infringements on the constitution. I’ve said it over and over again. Don’t want the government interfering? Stop allowing idiots and crazies having guns and giving gun owners a bad rep. If you don’t, then it’s only a matter of time. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2013-federal-assault-weapons-ban/265858)._
