"Bump firing" still requires a pull on the trigger for each round expended.

You don't know the firing sequence of a semiautomatic weapon, do you?  All eight cycles of functioning occur every time a round is fired, regardless of whether the trigger is pulled or not.

No trigger pulls are necessary for "bump firing".  It's one reason marksmanship instructors are pretty fanatic about gun safety.

FBI background check
Signed paperwork by your local law enforcement chief (police chief or sheriff of your home jurisdiction)
$200 Tax

If the background check is failed for whatever reason if there is a mistake on the paperwork, if the local police chief doesn't sign off, etc you can't get it. But if everything goes exactly right and the paperwork is right and the sheriff signs on the paperwork then yes you can legally own a "machinegun".

If not afraid, at least very very suspicious, concerned, and otherwise distrusting.

I don't see a problem with that.

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Ray, next you will want to ban S&M toys they are scarey and can hurt or even kill a person, and well you know it's really not important to most people to allow a few to have them.


I've always found it interesting that a bdsm website has so many people who think it's acceptable for them to force what they think is good and right upon other people. you'd think that out of group of people who engage in sadism and masochism (still mental disorders in the dsm-iv, might I add) would be the most wary of doing such a thing as they realize how many other people would love to do it to them.

I am so sick of people's irrational fears becoming law. There are more gun owners in the US, than there are doctors. Yet medical malpractice kills more people than guns.


Myself, I'm kind of sick of irrational statements made by people who want me to believe them without providing any proof.

I'll even make it easy and ignore the rest of your post, but how about providing some facts to substantiate this claim.


You really should take a moment and look it up. It's quite amazing and it only took me just a minute or two myself. Careful though....you really might end up being in favor of a ban on hospitals after you research it. They seem to cause far more deaths than guns.

Well, stop and think about it.  Hospitals are full of sick people--that's reason enough for me to steer clear of them.

I do use that logic with anyone who is elected.

Because of that, there are very few politicians I trust.

What are you "just saying"?  That shootings are horrible?  That killings are awful? 

Would it be more palatable to your sensibilities if the student were stabbed? Or smacked with an aluminum bat snatched from Phys Ed?  Or just thrown down a flight of stairs?

What in this story demonstrates that the problem is the gun and not the person holding the gun?

By the way, for those interested, it is a developing story, details can be found here.

As for gun laws, if they just fucking punished those who use the ill-legally, then most of this anti gun shit would go away.

As for the 15 year old post,.....gee we should outlaw cars then because they kill more children then guns

Got it the first time, mike.

Now, care to add some relevance to what otherwise is a rather pointless thread hijack?

Of the 2,400,000-plus Americans who die each year, over 45,000 are killed in transport accidents. The number of homicides, poisonings, and drunk driving fatalities are roughly the same, at around 17,000 each. Perhaps more surprisingly, a stunning 178,000 Americans die from medical or hospital error every year.

So the earlier cited figures that were asked to be proven have now had proof offered up for you slvmike.

No I don't care to add some relevance CL,all the relevance needed is there,for those that wish to see it.To pretend you are incapable of connecting the dots is disingenuous.Our children shoot other children,it is simple and it is disgusting...make of it what you wish.
