Well.. WTF are you going to do about all the bumpstocks that are out there once you "ban" them? Do you want to practice your confiscation fantasy? I guess only criminals should have bumpstocks..
You can bump fire with a rubber band, or a string, or a belt loop, or nothing at all. You can bump fire almost any semi-auto rifle or handgun. I've seen people bump fire an M1A bench rest shooting, no string or rubber band or anything.
Now the next millionaire pilot who wants to bump fire his weapon will be unable to do so! We are saved!
He could have. He could have bought bombs or flown his airplane into the crowd too. The strangest mass shooting in history. Truly.
And are using firearms to murder people. Congratulations. You've passed a law where people who aren't inclined to murder no longer have access, but the people who want to commit murder will still be using them. Great plan.
Do you say this crap just to be controversial or do you really believe what you say? One thread over you wanted all semi-autos to become NFA items. WTF?
And recommended by the NRA no less.. No, I definately do not like this.. But what do you think? I am going to go vote for the left to take everything else? I disagree with some thing the NRA does so I'm going to disavow them and join a banners club? Voting Trump was still a thousand times better than hillary and I would do it again in an instant..
Wouldn't be hilarious if Trump signed more gun restriction legislation in his first two years than Obama did in 8 ... gods, that's funny.
Yeah, it's not good times in the Trump camp.. But, their are a couple of 4D chess theories that I can remain hopeful for.. I'd explain them but I'm lazy and you are probably uninterested..
I see, so you want to send men with guns to kidnap people because police found a simple-shaped plastic part that could be used to modify the functional operation of certain types of guns a little bit. This is the type of thing a Chinese toy company could make for a nickel. And then, once a felon, oh how convenient, you'll take away all their rights from them.
But they don't violate the letter of the law, which is what really matters. Ban them with a new law. Don't ban them by executive action. Overreaching executive action is the start of tyranny.
This item was used only in one shooting so I do not know if we need the law. But to be honest banning bump stocks would mean absolutely nothing, they are gimmicky upgrades that are just as likely to jam your gun as to increase the speed of firing it. Basically all we would be doing is trying to put a company out of business in order to feel good about ourselves and pretend like we did "something."
