“Everybody knows that was not a bump stock...”
Right on the nose!
Where is the NRA?
I guess they have nothing for Bumpski or any of the other manufacturers that are having there businesses destroyed without any legislation. I wonder who else’s business is going to be illegal tomorrow without legislation.
and fast fingers too
This is, apparently, going to happen. I think it’s a really stupid move on Trump’s part. One of the few bad decisions that he’s made. I believe he is making it out of ignorance, but the results are the same. To all those speculating that people won’t turn them in, you’re probably right. And that is to democrat supporters of the rule, the purpose. Another example of:
“We’re after power and we mean it. You fellows were pikers, but we know the real trick, and you’d better get wise to it. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them...you create a nation of lawbreakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Rearden.”
From, of course, Atlas Shtrugged.
Just wait for the gun control legislation next year.
Marksman don’t need spray and pray. Most bullets go wild on fully automatic. A steady semi auto is better, it saves more ammo. Spraying is a toy for Yahoos. Need spray, get a SMG and pay the tax. It doesn’t really matter, they can’t stop the flow of illegals and drugs, where are they going to get the people to go and get the stocks? The Snowflakes? LOL, They better give them dark brown pants if the expect them to take them away.
stupid limp-wrist knee jerk Freepers? No one reads the article here anymore and base everything on the headline...
It might make good TV programming...... or a history footnote.
They’ll also have to confiscate all metallurgical and woodworking tools that might be used to make a bump stock. Good luck with that.
Everyone send the ATF a rubber band and surrender their bumpfire mechanism. Just prove the point.
“Stupid because you are needlessly getting your base angry. Silly because you can achieve the same result with a rubber band.”
—
If people can do the same thing with a rubber band wouldn’t that move those who have a hissy fit over it under the “Stupid Column”? Especially since rubber bands are way cheaper - literally than “a dime a dozen”?
“Or, what?”
They’ll send “people” to collect them. Who will kill you if you don’t comply.
I was decried on this forum as being a scaremonger over this, the red flag laws, and the Vermont magazine ban.
So, are we prepared to electorally punish Trump and the republicans for this, or not? I’m just trying to get a gauge on where the line is.
“Where is the NRA?”
They were the ones who asked the ATF review the legality of bump stocks. THEY ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
If CNN reports it I don’t believe it.
You got nothing from what I said. The item has never been the issue but the language of new laws. The weapon is the pen and the law.
Hmmmm....I was expecting I’d be the recipient of a nuclear bomb.
If he bans them he will be a one term president.
Hard to see what he is doing to prevent it. Two years and the only crooks being charged with anything are his people. Like that would happen in an Obama administration.
Never heard of Banzai Attacks huh? I can't imagine why the Germans built all those pill boxes along the beaches. Spraying is for repelling massive attacks. <> How would those Civil war battles have turned out if one side had a mini gun?
