So I personally don't think there is any reason that an average gun enthusiast citizen needs a bump stock and would be okay with them being outlawed. However, my issue is that with any issue, if you give an inch to the liberals they will take a mile. Meaning the next thing you know they will make every single AR platform be like a the bastardized California version and all "high capacity" magazine will be outlawed. It is obvious how truly ignorant they are when their leader Tweets out statements, immediately after this horrific tragedy, that clearly shows she has absolutely no idea what she is talking about. Would the liberals be okay with banning bump stocks but leave it at that? Or are they hell bent that gun enthusiasts like myself will have to turn in their weapons that they deem military in nature?

Why? If you don't see a reason, don't buy one.

Frick that. I don't have any, but I should be able to buy one if I want it. Not going to happen.

Dude, a suppressor wasn't used in this attack and that's been their biggest talking point so far. These aren't rational people.

Give an inch... this is the problem on both sides.

Republicans generally want to ban late term abortions. Dems know that once it starts, in a few years all are banned.

Dems generally want to ban certain types of weapons. Republicans know that once it starts, in a few years more and more will be banned.

There are so many topics like these 2 which are generally recognized as the most divisive. Personally I would be okay with bans on certain types of assault rifles but I will also vote with the NRA because I know the shite will never end.

I am also for stopping late term abortions as a means of birth control but I will continue to be pro-choice because there is currently no reasonable alternative. It's either black or white and no in between on this subject.

This is the predicament we are in now. No one wants to give in so nothing positive gets done.

Rights aren't determined by perceived needs. Most people will never need to defend themselves to save their lives or the lives of others. Doesn't mean they shouldn't have the right to carry weapons in case they might need them.

Nothing needs to be done on this. It's nothing but an emotional response to an emotional situation. It is a fact that bad shite is going to happen in life. When it does you don't have to make legislation on it.

i will ask you the same question i asked for 8 years when Obama was president. who is going to take your guns? the federal gov doesn't have the balls to go door to door and confiscate guns from gun owners. if they did what idiot would follow that order.

So exactly how many bullets should an individual be allowed to shoot in a given time frame? Would liberals be happier if he shot less bullets but took the time to aim each one?

This is my thought as well. I have a SBR (Sig Sauer MPX) and several AR platforms. I have them to plink targets and maybe someday hunt with them. Funny how some people consider they have no valid use.

It's called the Bill of Rights...not the Bill of Needs.

I have a feeling the Dems are gonna want all legal modification accessories for AR's, AK's, and so on banned soon. Then of course, they won't stop there.

Noone needs an AR. You are drawing the same arbitrary line based on your idea of what someone needs just like people who want to ban the AR platform outright.

You should really consider that.

What Constitutional right do you have to a bump stock?
