Good comment. Its astonishing how many people get their ideas from hollywood movies and television shows. One legislator back in the 1980s sponsored gun control legislation (according to his own admission) based on the show Miami Vice. He thought that machine guns must be a huge crime problem in the civilian population when in fact crimes with full auto weapons are nearly unheard of and nothing like the TV show.
