YOU may be able to fire and reload quickly. The hope is that YOU are also not likely to go shoot up a school. The asshats who have been shooting up schools and movie theaters are not commandos, they are asshats. Limiting the ability of mentally ill asshats to commit mass murder is a realistic goal and would be little or zero impediment to the skilled gun owners who are competent to reload a gun efficiently. You can most likely open a prescription bottle with a 'child-proof cap' on it. That doesn't mean having caps like that is an ineffective safety measure... because three-year-old children have an awfully tough time getting a bottle like that open, and THAT is the point. The sentiment of Booker's ideas is similar.
The things Booker mentioned are simple, and little or zero hindrance to the legal enjoyment of gun ownership. I have yet to hear a better idea from you... or anyone else.
