Yeah, no serious firearms enthusiast cares about bump stocks, therefore to banish them shouldn't ruffle many feathers.

A lot of gun guys/gals seem to think Trump is the greatest thing that's happened to gun rights since the 2nd Amendment was written but no one seems to notice that Trump is directly responsible for ordering the ATF to reverse their rulings on bump stocks and rewrite the legal definition of what constitutes a "machine gun" in dangerously loose terms just to make it happen.

This will also be the Federal Government's largest seizure of firearms related private property from law-abiding citizens EVER (even the restrictions on actual machine guns allowed a way for their owners to legally keep 'em) and sets a precedent for the future for outright "Mr and Mrs America, turn them all in!" type bans, all without going through the democratic processes for creating new laws.

How is this OK, Trump fans? Is gun control now part of MAGA?

LOL big deal. Since Trump, himself, is licensed to carry (and in NYC, no less) anyone who thinks he's promoting "gun control" is uninformed and a fool. And BTW, your gal Shrillery Clinton would have been the WORST thing that happened to gun rights.

You can stop being confused now.

I mean other than the fact that you get a hard on for it.
Why can't the police kick in your door and look for something bad you might have done. Why do you need to vote? You're just one person you're vote is irrelevant.

Since when have the first 10 amendments been called the "Bill of Needs"? Why do you NEED to be able to write whatever you want on the internet? It's not like it was around when the BO(R) was passed-so the 1st doesn't apply, right?

Absurd comparison.

Negative. The 1st does apply to the internet. The 2nd on the other hand does not apply to all types of guns. Machine guns are already highly regulated and essentially banned except for old ones. Absolutely no reason that devices producing a similar rate of fire can't be as well.
