by forcefully disarming their populace.

Actually they dont have “plenty of guns” except for the minuscule amount that are heavily regulated and the ones people refused to turn in. Oh and while on the subject of fascism, lets talk about how they forced people to sell their privet property to the government far under fair market value or face time in prison.…

And that’s exactly why it would be considered unconstitutional.

That’s been tried before and found unconstitutional. Its in the same vain as a voting tax. You cant tax the rights of citizens.

“ Accessories that shortcut past years of practice and allow anyone to achieve rates of fire comparable to full-auto absolutely should be regulated.” Years of practice? Talk to any kid who plays paint ball and they’ll show you how much “practice” it takes to shoot a gun with close to the same speed as a bump stock.

So if I’m able to shoot really fast with my own finger I should get charged with a felony? I didn’t know we were all cool with charging people with crimes they didn’t commit.

The ATF has reviewed “bumpfire” stocks in the past and found them to be acceptable. The ATF has reviewed numbers “accessories” and is no where near as hands-0ff as you suggest. Take the Auto-glove for instance. It was a glove to be warn by the shooter with a motor and rocker attached to the trigger finger that…

Maybe you should checkout a poem by Matrin Niemoller, I think it started something like...

So I guess we haven’t been fighting one of the longest wars in our history against folks with AK’s, home made bombs, and 20 year old vehicles? Last time I checked we weren’t necessarily dominating in that environment so what makes you think that it’ll happen here? Also, you assume that all police and military…

First off, the math used to get “95 people a day” is disingenuous at best and coming from a completely biased source. Even if we go with the 12,000 gun deaths a year number listed on the Bloomsburg run website, you’d have to take out 65% for the included suicides, 10% (aprox) for the number of self-defense…

“Two words: mental illness.” And? That’s unfortunate if its true, but it doesn’t decrease the threat he presented to the officers at the time. And if he was so mentally ill that he couldn’t understand that a weapon was being pointed at him and he needed to back away then he should have had some sort of care giver…

“Maybe because the NRA screams “THEYRE GUNNA TAKE UR GUNS!!!!””

And how fast can someone go from walking to running? With only fifteen feet between him and the cops that could be covered in 3-4 steps easy. include the fact that the pipe will extend his reach that cuts into an already split second time frame.

Firstly, that “stick” is a metal pipe, lets try to be at least somewhat accurate here. Secondly, thousands of people are beaten to death every year with blunt objects such as pipes every year, so my guess would be the cops didn’t want to get hit.

Standard protocol is to have one officer use a taser while the other has a firearm drawn because (even though people here dont want to believe it) a taser is not completely reliable. The prongs could not discharge accurately, or could not embed enough to deliver a complete charge.

Are you saying that if you ran out onto the highway alone right now and got hit by a car and killed, it’d be murder?

I’m sorry I must have missed people trying to burn down buildings, fighting the cops, throwing home made explosives at people, and trying to beat people because of what they believe outside of AntiFa.

Yeah I saw that report too, its outdated and misleading. Just look at the number of NICS background checks performed as part of firearms purchases every year. The record keeps getting broken because more people are buying firearms than ever before.

Sure, the suicides are a problem, just not a gun problem. so the breakdown is something like 60% are suicides, 10% are police shootings, 6%-7% are justifiable self defense shootings, and 2%-3% are accidents. So yeah, cops aren’t killing “black or brown” people by the thousands. In fact, FBI and DOJ stats show cops…

You are correct, my grammer was off.
