These idiots have blood on their hands.

They won’t care until it’s their kids that get mowed down.

They didn't care when someone shot them at a congressional softball game.

Tbf I had a guy try to rob me with a rambo looking knife and I'm not trying to ban large assault knives like his, either.

I removed a fingers crossed emoji because this this was extremely poor taste and I realize how stupid I am

Bro did you just cross your fingers that children get shot??

You realize many guns can be made full auto just by filling down or replacing a single part and the spring, right? It's been an issue for DECADES. This law was just reactionary legislation and didn't actually impact mass shootings. It being gone doesn't really change anything other than one less law to enforce.

Does America have a gun problem? Yes. Does it have an ass backwards bureaucracy problem? Also yes.

No they don't. Lawmakers do, for failing to pass a law banning bump stocks. What exactly do you think is the role of a judge?
