Mad Ogre offers this: "You know, we have a lot of people in Federal Offices, and Judges. Do you know all of them? Can you recognize them all 300 yards away? I know I can’t. So when Representative King in New York, a Republican mind you, says that he’s introducing legislation... well... here. Check this out. This is a hard thing to make work. I know all of us are Good Law Abiding Subjects and none of us want to break the Law. So how do we know who these judges are from a distance? To prevent this bill from creating hundreds of thousands of new criminals every day, I have a couple suggestions. First, each Federal Judge must wear a large bright green foam rubber cowboy hat. This makes them visible from 300 yards away. “But what if they are in a crowd or something?” That’s a good question. They must also carry with them a bunch of helium balloons. This why all members of congress and judges can be seen from 300 yards away and anyone with a gun on them can easily avoid them. I think this is an elegant solution to a serious problem. I also suggest carpooling for Congress and the Judges, because this 300 yard rule doesn't just end at the curb... and they want to go green, so it needs to be an economical car, right?"
