Machine guns are already illegal.

Neah.
They just cost a fortune, require a background check and a tax stamp from the BATF, and have to be made before 1968.

“Machine guns are already illegal”

They are legal federally with a proper license. However, each state has its own law. In most states they are also legal except for such states as illannoy (naturally).

"....leading Democrats are already demanding stricter gun control legislation...."

Stricter gun control is a dog whistle (using the favorite phrase of the Left) is just their way of saying all guns need to be banned.

Sometimes they use the code words "gun safety" to mean the same thing...get rid of guns completely.

This is never going to happen in the US. Americans own more guns than most of the standing armies in the world.
