Honestly, who didn’t see or couldn’t predict movement in Congress to ban bump stocks after this mass murder?


Sure, but what is the point of it, other than stupid, splashy P.R. for the anti-Second Amendment folks to say “We Won!”

Banning bump stocks is attempting to ban the laws of physics, because bump stocks use simple physics, and there are numerous ways of duplicating or creating a reasonable facsimiles thereof.

President Trump is doing the best job on this. Insist on waiting until the emotion dies down, then discussing it rationally.

Agreed Mark.

This mess stinks even at first glance.
In time it will be “Workplace Violence.”

Paddock had plenty of money, and no criminal record.

Why didn’t he just go through all the hoops and purchase a pre-1986 machine gun? Even if it cost $15,000 - $30,000 or more, money did not seem to be an impediment for him.
