I think you're giving a full on military situation too much credit. Besides a lot of this stuff happens even in training. I don't see how a full on military engagement that you were mentally prepared for because you knew exactly where you were and the situation you were heading into would be more stressful than you walking through the park minding your own business when suddenly your in the middle of a shoot out.
Maybe...each situation is diff. I just know with 30+ weapons on line dumping/maneuvering onto the objective + whatever indirect fire against multiple targets at varying ranges and directions could lead to a higher chance of confusion than 1 asshole that everyone with a line of sight instantly see's and identifies as baddie the second that first shot goes off.
I didn't argue that the testing was a good idea. I agree with that 100%. It's never going to happen because we're Americans and deeply stupid, and it's certainly not going to happen BEFORE or WITHOUT a ban on assault rifles. That pretty much has to come before anything else simply because of the way that people think.
^True story.
And texting while driving is regulated in more and more states every year.
Fucking took them long enough...
