What could possibly be the public-safety benefit of that? "You're not allowed to have 10 round magazines for semi-auto rifles, because of murders. But we'll let you keep your ten round pistol magazines that happen to fit in rifles, just as long as you solemnly swear not to put them into a rifle, ever, anywhere, for any reason."

Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. It is the exclusive possession of a small and disreputable minority, like knowledge, courage and honor. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty — and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies. - H.L. Mencken

If they just said 30 rounds max, no matter what the gun was, I could live with that. For now anyways.
I could live with 10 across the board, for now (key words "for now"). It really is a stupid law. I've got some very small 10 round (pinned to five) AR mags. If I were hell bent on murder I could easily carry a whole whack of them. They're much more "pocketable" than the 30 rounders.

I'd love to see this backfire for anti-gun sorts. Instead of tightening restrictions on guns the powers that be take a good hard look at how the system, as it sits, is failing and strikes the magazine restriction policy. (Or at the very least makes it so the capacity is set to factory standard. So a pistol that normally holds 17 rounds could in fact have 17. An AR-15 could have it's normal 30 round magazine. If they want to leave true high capacity magazines banned, like the drum mags, I could live with that. I'd possibly call it a fair compromise.)
Sadly I do not think that would happen.

To show that public safety isn’t hurt by responsible individuals carrying to protect life, use the American experience.
