This will change exactly zero minds, unfortunately.

He acknowledges that the likelihood of needing more than 10rds is vanishingly small. Now, those of us who frequent this board will want to be prepared for such a scenario. But the people proposing magazine restrictions will say that the potential benefit of capacity restrictions (ie, curbing mass shootings) outweighs the potential harm to the one homeowner in 5 or 10 million who finds himself hunting down 5+ home invaders with a semi-automatic rifle.

I think the better thing for "our side" to do is focus on the fact that the perceived benefit of curbing mass violence is imagined.
