U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) ^ | Oct 04 2017 | U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA)

“Banning possession of Slide Fires legally purchased would be an unconstitutional ex post facto law.”

In old America that was under that old fashioned Constitution document, that would have been true. New America plays a game of sophistry where the game is that the government can do anything, but you have to make a silly argument that “explains” why its constitutional. They hope to soon abandon that part of the game.

[gundog]

No, that’s a parrot. Yarrrrrrrrr.

Automatic Gunfire Protection Act

Are they going to ban rubber bands too?

[mdittmar]

Well,I’ll email patty,she knows.

[chris37]

A spring loaded stock that uses recoil generated from firing to push the gun forward thus pushing the trigger against the finger in such a way that it generates a faster rate of fire than just pulling the trigger rapidly.

I short, it simulates automatic fire using s semiautomatic weapon, and it takes practice to be able to use reliably.

[gundog]

Are you asking me what a bump stock is?

[tumblindice]

Anyone buying one of those things, at least a Slide Fire, received an opinion from the BATF that the device was perfectly legal.
You’re right though. They are experts in squaring circles. As usual our distinguished senators require schooling in Con Law I if they seek to make something legal, illegal.

[umgud]

a bill to close a deadly loophole that allows semi-automatic weapons to be easily modified to fire at the rate of automatic weapons, which have been illegal for more than 30 years.

Machine guns were never made illegal at the federal level. This shooter could legally have bought one if he wanted to spend in excess of $10 and invest many months going thru the process. Sen Murray as usual, doesn't know what she's talking about.

[gundog]

To say nothing of banning semi-autos previously purchased.

[mdittmar]

No,Senator Patty Murray knows what it is.

[moovova]

“What’s a gun stock?”

It good for making gun soup...like beef or chicken stock.

[Sooth2222]

"The bill also contains exceptions for lawful possession of these devices by law enforcement and the government."

WHAT? "Law enforcement and the government" are permitted to have all the fully automatic weapons that they might want right now. I can't imagine that any agent of "law enforcement and the government" would actually want one of these things.

[tumblindice]

Murray’s ‘statement’ is full of misstatements.

[VeniVidiVici]

That didn’t take long for the idiots to find a cause to latch onto.

Bump stock in action.

[mdittmar]

Yea,those are bad,the whole stock thing.

[BenLurkin]

When 100 people die in a plane crash. Do the Democrats demand an end to civilian air travel?

[Nailbiter]

When 50 million die of abortion - do they demand an end to sex

[shanover]

They just throw sh*t out there. It doesn’t have to be Constitutional, lawful, correct,work or even make sense.

[Robert357]

Yeah Patty, getting rid of bump stocks will make it impossible for people without fully automatic weapons to shoot rapidly......opps well maybe not everyone.....well maybe....oh never mind we know your heart is in the right place, even if the laws you propose are stupid.
