    Blame it on teaching evolution, or video games, or moral decay, just whatever you do don’t blame it on how easy it is for unstable people to get a hold of machine guns.

      This guy is a fucking insane Christofacist piece of shit. Seriously, anyone who thinks mythology from the bronze age is a better source than hundreds of years of scientific discovery is deluding themselves. Our country is so fucked.

      Side note: Machine guns shoot many bullets with a single trigger pull and have more stringent laws than other guns that require a trigger pull per shot.

      Uh, it’s actually very hard to get a hold of a machine gun, the grandfathered legal ones cost like $100k.

      Is that the America we want?

      Where only upper middle class have the right to Ma Deuce?

          A bump stock arguably makes it full auto, but it doesn’t make it a machinegun.

          Arguably the reason this thread is confused is that the word ‘machine gun’ doesn’t refer so much to physical characteristics, but more to a usage: they’re meant for sustained covering fire rather than short bursts.
