Sure.

This is bullshite. "I support the Second Amendment, but..." is fairly common for people who own guns and like shooting them, but don't really care about gun rights. You aren't pro-gun.

No practical use other than to simulate full auto, which is also banned.


This is also bullshite. There are several practical uses for increasing the rate of fire for your weapons, and full-auto is not banned.

Some of you snowflakes get your panties in a bunch over anything.


This is bullshite, too. Your group wants to limit gun rights. Pushing back against that in any way we can doesn't make anyone a snowflake or whatever else you want to throw around.

Why would you want to cede ANY ground whatsoever to a group of people who will never stop encroaching at every opportunity? There is no tactical win whatsoever.

LULZ do you work at a fudd gun shop or something? If the HPA was going to be passed it would have been when the GOP owned the House, Senate and Presidency. Silencers will NEVER be a non-NFA item. Hence why giving an inch on anything is a loss, once it's taken away or regulated, the odds of that course being reversed is essentially non-existent.

Sure, why not? Is he going to be able to afford multi-million dollar equipment, know how to operate and wield the ultra-expensive ordinance required for them to be effective? If he has that much money and desire, he could do just as much damage with currently available means.

I agree with you.

I think in this case, anyone who has a brain can see that a bump stock is merely a novelty.

Ok, whatever man. If you can't apply some common sense here then you are just furthering the stereotype of a 2A wacko. I'm a southern, conservative hunter and I don't think Joe citizen should have a bazooka or an automatic rifle. Call me a liberal pansy, I guess I just don't fit in around here.

This is exactly what will happen with all guns. When the left says "no one is coming for your guns", this is what they mean.

Then you're ignorant, a hypocrite, or a liar. Maybe a combination of the three.

No offense.

My position is eminently more consistent and defensible that one seeking to draw an arbitrary line on how far a Constitutional freedom should extend.

I don't doubt that, but you are not a Second Amendment supporter.

I think a lot of things that I don't see necessary to be codified into law.

The 2A says the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

It doesn't say which arms are okay to keep and bear. You interpret that to mean "all," and I interpret it to mean "within reason." There is no cut and dried line, and I get that.

I certainly don't want the government drawing the arbitrary line for us. But I just think that common folk can agree on certain things. Never going to please everyone, I get that.

Hello Fudd, let me ask you a question:

What is the acceptable rate of fire (rounds per minute) for someone shooting a semi-auto? I would like a number

More importantly, what does the U.S. Supreme Court think that means? Per Scalia:

"Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose: For example, concealed weapons prohibitions have been upheld under the amendment or state analogues. The court's opinion should not be taken to cast doubt on long-standing prohibitions on the possession of firearms by felons and the mentally ill, or laws forbidding the carrying of firearms in sensitive places such as schools and government buildings, or laws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms. The holding in United States v. Miller that the sorts of weapons protected are those "in common use at the time" finds support in the historical tradition of prohibiting the carrying of dangerous and unusual weapons."
