Sawed off 2x4s need to be made illegal too. Only unmodified 2x4s sold
by licensed 2x4 dealers should be available. And purchasers should be
required to fill out a background check and be subject to a 3 day
waiting period before they can take possession of their 2x4. And no
one should be allowed to buy more then one 2x4 per month. And it goes
without saying that no one should be allowed to ship a 2x4 across
state lines without going thru a licensed 2x4 dealer who will ship it
to another licensed 2x4 dealer in the other state. And no 2x4's
within 1000 feet of a school. No 2x4s inside a bank or court. And no
open carry of 2x4s, it scares too many people.
