My, my, those gun laws are really effective in stopping crime aren't they? Wow, they knew the date and everything, what else?

Agreed. But in the hands of a moron like this Martinez fellow, we can be sure that, while it emits a deadly number of bullets, there is absolutely NO way he would win a firefight with the cops. That machine pistol couldn’t hit the side of a barn at 50 yards in the hands of a novice.

Despite their reputation, I gather that M-10s are not particularly good weapons, and have a tendency to jam. Made from mostly steel stampings did keep the price low

I think the point of the exercise is that most of the MSM folks use the term recklessly. Until we can definitively say that the pistol used was, in fact, a machine pistol (hold down the trigger until the mag is empty), then I’m calling bollocks on the reporter.

Most New Yorkers wouldn’t know a machine pistol from a revolver, and that goes DOUBLE for the media!

I don’t get why the distaste for the term machine pistol. Uzi, Mac-10, Skorpion (however you spell that russian one) have been called that for years.

I’m surprised the weapon was not described as an AK-47 Assault Rifle.

But are they legit, or do they need to talk to INS?

I was thinking the exact same thing. Firearms are machines by the nature of their existence. Perhaps they should've said, "Assault Pistol?" I think that would've been even worse!

This thug got what was coming to him, but the first question I asked as I read the article, "You have to have a 'tax stamp' to peddle your wares?" What is this country coming to?

But we got your back during the terrorist trial......

Machine pistols...ugh

"Everybody loved him,'' she said. "It's a great loss to the family.''

But, not to society.

America’s economy and thus we need the highly skilled workers such as engineers, scientists, programmers and other professional level immigrants. The Economist magazine had an article last year about how letting such professionals immigrate results in far more jobs for Americans in America because those people create innovations and thus jobs for us.

Oh sure, it would be better for America to provide enough scientists, engineers, and programmers but our liberal-run schools and universities have not been graduating enough of such professionals. Yes, it is a shame that America’s liberal schools can not educate enough people in math, science and other fields for them to then go on to engineering and science degrees and jobs in research and production in America.

This is as big a myth as Global Warming....and like Global Warming....more Globalist BS

We have plenty of Americans trained in engineering and other specialized fields...they all have lost their jobs in America over the past few years. Instead of hiring less-skilled lower-paid foreigners....we can rebuild our economy by hiring the skilled Americans we already have.

We do not need an H1B visa program, or any special visa program. Over ten percent of Americans are out of work...there are plenty of Americans to hire.

Also, The Economist is a bed-wetting liberal publication.

I was eating a burger with my friend at Good Burger today when they walked past. A bunch of old hippies pretending to be vets. About 50 protesters in total. Quite sad.

We do not need any type of “professional immigrants”. There is over 10% unemployment in the USA, and we have plenty of talented and capable people who are out of work.

If Bill Gates and other Economic Anti-Americans refuse to hire Americans, let them take their business out of the country. We should not enact laws to merely enrich certain businesses, at the expense of most Americans. If your business cannot survive by hiring Americans, you should go out of business....no more Business Soicalism....

No surprise Schumer and the Soros-buttboy Lindsey Graham would be behind this piece of Economic Anti-Anericanism and outright Treason. Sadly, you will find many RINOs who will support such Treason
