So apparently he doesn't know what a machine gun is.

Also it's rather factually incorrect to blame this on the Obama administration specifically.

I'm just really disgusted at the name calling and intentional misdirection of the public that you're supposed to lead.

I don't get how people aren't turning on Trump for this.

Remember when he said we should take the guns of people being invesigated by cops/fBI for being weirdos until the investigation is over?

If Obama or Clinton or Christ even Bush had said we should take guns away from citizens the right would still be screaming about it today

yet with Trump suddenly their God Given rights don't matter anymore...

Because Trump Supporters are literally just a cult. They will agree with whatever he says, because they don't want to think for themselves.

Bump stocks are hardly something to turn a semi-auto rifle into a full auto machine gun, to do that you would need a number of illegal modifications.

Because contrary to popular belief, the NRA actually had their hands on basically all the major gun control legislation, and they actually pushed for this like the useless pieces of shit they are, and because they pushed for this they would never rally against it which is why the NRA is massively down voted on slick's and they even disabled the comments due to the back lash.

Did they ever even confirm that he used one? Because this was a man that could afford a registered machine gun and a few CNC machines if he wanted to produce only the finest.

You can't turn a rifle into a machine gun at all. Maybe a submachine gun.

Bump stocks are actually a fairly good scapegoat to stave off further gun control. They're just a lazy method to achieve an effect you can get manually. If you're someone who is against gun control in any form the banning of bump stocks is among the easiest of concessions to make.

Yeah that is more true, but then again you could also turn any semi-auto handgun into a submachine gun if you are determined enough.

Throwing bones to someone that will never pat your back and pissing off the people that actually voted for you is a good way to lose your reelection.

An alternative reason: they're genuinely scared that the kids from Parkland will finally loosen the death grip the NRA has on gun control and are hoping a weak gesture like banning bump stocks will dampen support for the kids.

Yes. 12 of them were found at the scene.

Fuck giving them gestures, they've been slowly stripping away our rights for decades. It's time for an actually offensive instead of listening to the NRA's bullshit, just let their crappy corporate lobbying group die already.

You remember the undetectable firearms act that was passed by Reagen? NRA pushed for it and told everyone that it would expire and you shouldn't worry about it, decades later they pushed to pass the law permanently because someone actually made a single shot 22.

The NRA is just like most other politicians. They're creating a problem that they can then use to drum up support and rally against in some form or fashion, thus ensuring their existence.

whole problem with the scapegoat aspect is that it wont work. gun grabbers will NEVER stop at that. it just makes them more ravenous for more now that they know they can make some headway.

most of the people on the gun side seems like theyre fed up, not only with trump but most republicans who are in office now. signing the spending bill isnt doing him any favors either.

Bump stocks are hillbilly toys and as of Paddock, spree killer ways of circumventing the intend of the law.
ATF classified them wrong.

We're a nation of laws, even if you support legalizing automatic guns, at least fucking go about it the right way.

You don't need to a bump stock to bump fire. Should someone get in trouble if they're caught bump firing (without the stock) their weapon?

No because it's not a mechanical device to aid it. Derp.
And you know bump firing is inaccurate and a shit way to shoot. It ain't comparable to bump stocks which facilitate it enough to closer mimic full auto.
If bump firing is just as good, why cry about the stock ban?
