None of those acts infringe upon the rights of another citizen, nor do they have the potential to harm others, intentionally or inadvertently.

Moreover, not only can criminals order online, but that is likely the precise route they would take – other than the black market which will only be increased if this is passed.

Honestly, this is in fact worse than the gun registry because at least with that, all you needed to do was record the purchase. This means asking for permission!

This is not only an infringement on freedom, but an assault on our intelligence.

You want to expand on the doll? Pics?
