Anybody here interested in banning bump-stocks?

Of course you are!

Here's a link to- The Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives Bureau (ATF) Proposed Rule: Bump-Stock Type Device
https://www.regulations.gov/comment?D=ATF-2018-0002-0001

Please consider taking a few minutes to let them know how you feel.
As of now, there are over 21,000 comments and I imagine the reichwing fever-swamps are mobilizing to push their pro-death agenda.

I can't imagine any rational argument why something like this should be legal-

Banking bumpstocks is fine, but.. It won't lower gun death numbers I'd wager.

I signed this one as silence on this/any gun issue is complicity.

The last thing I hope to see it wingnuts running away with the comments by posting "don't ban bumpstocks" comments.
