On the recordMarch 22, 1996
I just heard the most idiotic statement I have ever heard here. I really have. None of us had anything to do with this list. It was the proponents. There, the gentleman from New York [Mr. Schumer] and the gentlewoman in the Senate, the gentlewoman from California, made up this list, nobody else. They did not have to have a list. They could have had every semiautomatic and tried to ban it. They would not have succeeded.
