    A federal effort to ban bump stocks, the type of device used by the Las Vegas concert shooter, wont be easy. There are up to 520,000 of themhttps://on.wsj.com/2qfz5TY

        Ohh I’m sure that a physco killer will really be dissuaded by a new law banning bump stocks from commmitting evil in the future

        Not if they were made illegal to own.

        Whether it’s easy or not is not the point. It has to be done. And it should be considered the first of several measures to be taken...

        A bump stock does not create a machine gun out of a semi auto. It is still semi auto. #blackriflesmatter #repealtheNFA

        By "not easy" you mean "easy". Throw a 5 year prison sentence at anyone who doesn't turn it in, see how difficult it is to get rid of them.

        Pay for the return of bump stocks or confiscate them.

        I think bump stocks are completely unnecessary, but if banning means confiscation, it will set a bad precedence enabling gun confiscation.

        Why don't you spend more time and energy finding out the details of the Vegas massacre instead of this nonsense. Bump stocks had nothing to do with this event. Complete diversion.

        WSJ re: bump stock ban, "Tough to enforce" -- so just don't do difficult things? Could just crawl under the bed. Or start by trying. Then try more and again.

        being tough to enforce sound reason not to enact a law 🤔
