Just an idiot lawmaker who wants to be noticed by someone. Any law like this would be quickly shot down for constitutional reasons. Freedom of speach, 1st Amendment. He knows this. He just wants to make a fuss so someone will listen to him. He just needs the attention.
They should require the inventor to demonstrate it with live ammo. What? Can't do it? That is because this is vaporware. A dream. IBM is putting that patent out there so they have something to sue with if someone comes out with any kind of technology that even comes close to this.
They need to revamp the law so that a person cannot get a patent with just an idea on paper. They need to build and demonstrate the actual working invention. Then they can get a patent.
