    A year after bump stocks – which speed up the firing rate of semiautomatic rifles – were used in the Las Vegas massacre, they're still mostly legal in the U.S.https://n.pr/2NLEpNL

        Bump stocks can be 3D-printed - even an outright ban would run up against the same challenges that regulators are having with 3D printed guns.

        That's because bump stocks don't kill people.

        Sure, just legalize all weapons. Bombs, howitzers, flamethrowers and tactical nukes. What could possibly go wrong.

        Bump stocks aren’t the solution. We need to make sure people get mental help and be mentally healthy so they can be good people.

        Is that really a surprise? As a Brit....I find the USA's love affair with guns incomprehensible

        The action of a bump stock can be duplicated with a strong rubber band.http://tinyurl.com/ycpqgo26

        It’s atrocious. Just goes to show that money is God, and our political system is a farce.
