The story of how Danny and I were married last
July in a Manhattan
courtroom, with our son, Kevin, beside
us, began 12 years earlier, in a dark,
damp subway station.
Danny called me that day, frantic. “I found a baby!” he
shouted. “I called 911, but I don’t think they believed me.
No one’s coming. I
don’t want to leave the baby alone. Get
down here and flag down a police car or
something.”
By nature Danny is a remarkably calm person, so when I felt
his
heart pounding through the phone line, I knew I had to
run.

York Times

So that raises the question: is this legal? For now, it would appear
so.
“There are no restrictions on an individual manufacturing a firearm for
personal use,” a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) spokesperson
told Ars. “However, if the individual is engaged in business as a firearms
manufacturer, that person must obtain a manufacturing license.”

This morning, Representatives Peter DeFazio (D-OR) and Jason Chaffetz (R-UT)
introduced the SHIELD Act, which would create a "loser pays" system for some
types of patent litigants. The bill is meant to stymie companies that do nothing
more than file patent lawsuits.
