They just said on Fox News they were fully automatic weapons and illegal. So these weapons ARE already illegal.

Don't believe what you see on Faux News. Read for yourself. No, they are not. I know people who own them. I shoot with them. Unless you live in a stupid slave state like NY, NJ, IL, MA, MD, CA, HI, and if you are not a prohibited possessor, and if there is a transferable (previously registered) machine gun available, you can buy it. You will probably wait 12 - 24 months for the ATF to clear the sale, but MACHINE GUNS AREN'T ILLEGAL IN THE US. STOP SAYING THEY ARE.

All I can do is shake my head at how some of these Americans can be easily fooled by this corrupt leftist culture.

If anti-2nd Amendment people would read FRee Republic, then they would hopefully learn to first ask if shootings took place in gun-free zones which the Las Vegas tragedy allegedly is. Corrections welcome.
Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas Is a GUN-FREE Zone

When people are shocked by a terrible event, they aren’t thinking clearly.

They (class A weapons) are legal to own with the right permit. (tax stamp)

Varies by state, of course.

I agree. It’s sad.

What can you say. They get it instinctively, or they don’t.

To be honest, I suspect he was never as pro-2nd Amendment as he claims.

This clown probably has some equally “deep” thoughts on quartering troops in his house. Constitutional expert no doubt.

The abuse of rights leads to calls to restrict rights.

See also Berkeley Free Speech restrictions.

How does he feel about truck control? More killed by the truck attack in Nice, France.

Might as well argue against the right to privacy and call for cams in all Hotel Rooms.

Maybe they shouldn't have a concert in what amounted to a convenient shooting gallery.

The killer broke the law.
What other laws would stop this crime?

Only the laws of God that use to guide the morality of this country can.


We now have a plague of evil in the land.
