Another flashy, scary word that brain dead liberal vote bots can latch onto that is almost meaningless and not even a part of the problem.



How can even the most brainless poster here say something like this less than a week from a shooting where a bump stock was used to kill and injure so many people?

Are they though? To my knowledge the use of fully auto weapons in gun crime is pretty rare. Surely that has something to do with their cost and availability.

Because bump stocks will cease to exist upon being banned. Cool. Yet another example of taking things from law abiding citizens so criminals will be the only ones that have them.

Thank God, because no bump stocks will mean no one will be murdered to death by guns ever again.

The Far Left is beyond idiotic. JMO...


Idiotic is thinking that a law has no merit unless it attains some unrealistic result.

Yes. The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Any gun crime is rare when you look at the overwhelming number of guns in this country.

Making something too expensive for 99% of the population to curb a .09% chance of it being used in a crime does not make good common sense. You are curtailing the rights of the majority because of the actions of an extreme minority.

Taking bump stocks from law abiding bump stock owners makes them unable to protect themselves from criminals with bump stocks

They came for bump stocks but I didn’t care because I didn’t have a bump stock...

There are so many different factors that contributed to this event that creating legislation for one specific item is just asinine.

Because a "Bump Stock" is not what killed all those people.

How come your not wetting your panties over the high vantage point that the shooter had to make killing 59 people and wounding 500 more so easy? SELECTIVE OUTRAGE that why...

GFY

I'm one of the few people in this pussy country that looks at this and thinks of course shite like this is going to happen because we live in a pussy country where we can't institutionalize the crazy people because that might hurt their feelings. This shooting is not even close to being surprising to me because I know that the more you turds sensationalize this crap the more you emboldening the other useless turds who are home wanting their 15 minutes of fame.

Most of you peoples outrage is a straight up joke because smart people can see your agenda.

Feinstein introducing bill to ban the sale, of bump stocks, trigger cranks that accelerate a semi-automatic rifle’s rate of fire
Good.

Approval of those measures should be unanimous.

I specifically said it would decrease their availability

Do any of you people have the ability to argue without getting so emotional? I'd swear you were libs.

So let me get this straight. Fully auto weapons are heavily restricted and illegal without appropriate, hard to attain licensing, but that has nothing to do with the fact that they are rarely ever used in violent crime.

Got it!

I think I took time to address every word of your post?

If I were to pull some "point" out of your post. I guess you were trying to say, laws made them harder to get and as a result they aren't used very often.

To counter that "point", and again, I'm drawing conclusions about your post instead of addressing your actual words now, I'd say, over regulation burdening the law abiding majority to prevent the minority from doing something illegal does not make sense. You are preventing people from enjoying their freedom, all the while the bad actors will still find a way no matter how many new laws or regulations are passed.

Or... We could have freedom and liberty.


so you're in favor of allowing fully automatic weapons to be available for purchase at walmart? your freedom and liberty is currently being infringed because you aren't able to buy said fully automatic weapons at walmart at the present time? are you insane?

My point was that something being highly available vs highly restricted makes it more likely to be used. That is a different argument than whether something should be illegal based on constitutional rights.
